Is predicted to encode a protein with the following domains: WD40 repeat; WD domain, G-beta repeat; Translation initiation factor, beta propellor-like domain; WD40-repeat-containing domain superfamily; Eukaryotic translation initiation factor eIF2A; WD40/YVTN repeat-like-containing domain superfamily; and G-protein beta WD-40 repeat. Is an ortholog of C. elegans
wdr-5.1;
wdr-5.3; and
wdr-5.2. In C. elegans,
wdr-5.1 is involved in determination of adult lifespan; programmed cell death; and transdifferentiation.
