Lost in the WASH. The functional human WASH complex 1 gene is on chromosome 20
2023-06-14
Abstract excerpt
The WASH1 gene produces a protein that forms part of the developmentally important WASH complex. The WASH complex activates the Arp2/3 complex to initiate branched actin networks at the surface of endosomes. As a curiosity, the human reference gene set includes nine WASH1 genes. How many of these are pseudogenes and how many are bona fide coding genes is not clear. Eight of the nine WASH1 genes reside in rearran...
