Literature associating WDR62 and primary autosomal recessive microcephaly 9

WDR62 [ENSP00000384792]

WD repeat-containing protein 62; Required for cerebral cortical development. Plays a role in neuronal proliferation and migration. Plays a role in mother-centriole-dependent centriole duplication; the function seems also to involve CEP152, CDK5RAP2 and CEP63 through a stepwise assembled complex at the centrosome that recruits CDK2 required for centriole duplication; WD repeat domain containing

The disease-gene associations are derived from automatic text mining of the biomedical literature, manually curated database annotations, cancer mutation data, and genome-wide association studies. The confidence of each association is signified by stars, where ★★★★★ is the highest confidence and ★☆☆☆☆ is the lowest.
