Name | WWOX |

Synonyms | FOR, SDR41C1, WOX1 |
Function | Putative oxidoreductase. Acts as a tumor suppressor and plays a role in apoptosis. Required for normal bone development (By similarity). May function synergistically with p53/TP53 to control genotoxic stress-induced cell death. Plays a role in TGFB1 signaling and TGFB1-mediated cell death. May also play a role in tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-mediated cell death. Inhibits Wnt signaling, probably by sequestering DVL2 in the cytoplasm. |
Cellular Location | Cytoplasm. Nucleus Mitochondrion. Golgi apparatus. Lysosome Note=Partially localizes to the mitochondria (PubMed:14695174) Translocates to the nucleus upon genotoxic stress or TNF stimulation (By similarity). Translocates to the nucleus in response to TGFB1 (PubMed:19366691). Isoform 5 and isoform 6 may localize in the nucleus Localized to the lysosome probably upon binding to VOPP1 (PubMed:30285739). {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14695174, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19366691, ECO:0000269|PubMed:30285739} |
Tissue Location | Widely expressed. Strongly expressed in testis, prostate, and ovary. Overexpressed in cancer cell lines. Isoform 5 and isoform 6 may only be expressed in tumor cell lines |

Background
WW domain-containing proteins are found in all eukaryotesand play an important role in the regulation of a wide variety ofcellular functions such as protein degradation, transcription, andRNA splicing. This gene encodes a protein which contains 2 WWdomains and a short-chain dehydrogenase/reductase domain (SRD). Thehighest normal expression of this gene is detected in hormonallyregulated tissues such as testis, ovary, and prostate. Thisexpression pattern and the presence of an SRD domain suggest a rolefor this gene in steroid metabolism. The encoded protein is morethan 90% identical to the mouse protein, which is an essentialmediator of tumor necrosis factor-alpha-induced apoptosis,suggesting a similar, important role in apoptosis for the humanprotein. In addition, there is evidence that this gene behaves as asuppressor of tumor growth. Alternative splicing of this genegenerates transcript variants that encode different isoforms.
