Protein localization

The majority of normal cells showed moderate membranous and in some cases also cytoplasmic positivity. Pancreatic islets, renal tubules, trophoblasts, cells in ductus seminiferus and purkinje cells were strongly stained. Squamous epithelia, gastrointestinal tract, exocrine pancreas, urothelium and glial cells were weakly stained or negative.

Description

Wolfram syndrome 1 (wolframin) (HGNC Symbol)

Entrez gene summary

This gene encodes a transmembrane protein, which is located primarily in the endoplasmic reticulum and ubiquitously expressed with highest levels in brain, pancreas, heart, and insulinoma beta-cell lines. Mutations in this gene are associated with Wolfram syndrome, also called DIDMOAD (Diabetes Insipidus, Diabetes Mellitus, Optic Atrophy, and Deafness), an autosomal recessive disorder. The disease affects the brain and central nervous system. Mutations in this gene can also cause autosomal dominant deafness 6 (DFNA6), also known as DFNA14 or DFNA38. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2009]
