This gene encodes a protein which contains WD repeats and an FYVE domain. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene, but the full-length nature of some variants has not been defined.

Biochemistry

This protein appears to act as a autophagy scaffolding protein.Le Duc D, Giulivi C, Hiatt SM, Napoli E, Panoutsopoulos A, Harlan De Crescenzo A, Kotzaeridou U, Syrbe S, Anagnostou E, Azage M, Bend R, Begtrup A, Brown NJ, Büttner B, Cho MT, Cooper GM, Doering JH, Dubourg C, Everman DB10, Hildebrand MS12,17, Santos FJR, Kellam B, Keller-Ramey J, Lemke JR, Liu S11, Niyazov D, Payne K, Person R, Quélin C, Schnur RE, Smith BT, Strober J, Walker S, Wallis M, Walsh L, Yang S, Yuen RKC, Ziegler A, Sticht H, Pride MC, Orosco L, Martínez-Cerdeño V, Silverman JL, Crawley JN, Scherer SW, Zarbalis KS, Jamra R (2019) Pathogenic WDFY3 variants cause neurodevelopmental disorders and opposing effects on brain size.

Clinical

Mutations in this gene have been associated with neurodevelopmental delay, intellectual disability, macrocephaly and psychiatric disorders (autism spectrum disorders/attention deficit hyperactivity disorder).Le Duc D, Giulivi C, Hiatt SM, Napoli E, Panoutsopoulos A, Harlan De Crescenzo A, Kotzaeridou U, Syrbe S, Anagnostou E, Azage M, Bend R, Begtrup A, Brown NJ, Büttner B, Cho MT, Cooper GM, Doering JH, Dubourg C, Everman DB10, Hildebrand MS12,17, Santos FJR, Kellam B, Keller-Ramey J, Lemke JR, Liu S11, Niyazov D, Payne K, Person R, Quélin C, Schnur RE, Smith BT, Strober J, Walker S, Wallis M, Walsh L, Yang S, Yuen RKC, Ziegler A, Sticht H, Pride MC, Orosco L, Martínez-Cerdeño V, Silverman JL, Crawley JN, Scherer SW, Zarbalis KS, Jamra R (2019) Pathogenic WDFY3 variants cause neurodevelopmental disorders and opposing effects on brain size.
