NEWGENE_1306714 Gene Summary [Rat]

Involved in several processes, including positive regulation of neuroblast proliferation; positive regulation of neuron migration; and regulation of centrosome cycle. Predicted to be located in cytosol; microtubule cytoskeleton; and nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in intellectual disability; polymicrogyria; primary autosomal recessive microcephaly; and primary autosomal recessive microcephaly 2 with or without cortical malformations. Orthologous to human WDR62 (WD repeat domain 62). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]
