Wdr36

Predicted to be involved in rRNA processing and ribosomal small subunit biogenesis. Predicted to act upstream of or within regulation of axon extension and retina homeostasis. Predicted to be located in nucleolus. Predicted to be part of Pwp2p-containing subcomplex of 90S preribosome and small-subunit processome. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in glaucoma and primary open angle glaucoma. Orthologous to human WDR36 (WD repeat domain 36). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2025]

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in rat Wdr36 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
