Summary
This gene encodes a cytoplasmic protein which contains a regulation of G-protein signaling (RGS) domain and a dishevelled and axin (DIX) domain. The encoded protein interacts with adenomatosis polyposis coli, catenin beta-1, glycogen synthase kinase 3 beta, protein phosphate 2, and itself. This protein functions as a negative regulator of the wingless-type MMTV integration site family, member 1 (WNT) signaling pathway and can induce apoptosis. The crystal structure of a portion of this protein, alone and in a complex with other proteins, has been resolved. Mutations in this gene have been associated with hepatocellular carcinoma, hepatoblastomas, ovarian endometriod adenocarcinomas, and medullablastomas. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2016]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.

    Status: REVIEWED

    Description
    Transcript Variant: This variant (1) represents the longer transcript, and encodes the longer isoform (a). An upstream in-frame AUG is present that could extend the N-terminus of this isoform by 49 aa; however, there is no evidence that the upstream AUG is used, so the shorter N-terminus is being annotated.

    Status: REVIEWED

    Description
    Transcript Variant: This variant (2) lacks an in-frame exon in the 3' coding region, compared to variant 1. The resulting protein (isoform b) is shorter, compared to isoform a. An upstream in-frame AUG is present that could extend the N-terminus of this isoform by 49 aa; however, there is no evidence that the upstream AUG is used, so the shorter N-terminus is being annotated.

    Transcript Variant: This variant (3) lacks two internal exons, compared to variant 1. This variant is represented as non-coding because the use of the 5'-most expected translational start codon renders the transcript a candidate for nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD).
