How WBP11 is laid out
- Coding sequence
- Untranslated region
- Intron
- Direction of transcription
- Known disease-causing sites
- Stretches short reads find hard
Exons of the gene's MANE Select transcript (release v1.5), from NCBI and EMBL-EBI, on the GRCh38 reference genome.
Chromosome bands from UCSC's GRCh38 ideogram (2022-10-29).
Nearby genes from Ensembl release 116, on GRCh38.
Exons make up 4.6 kb of the gene's 18.9 kb; 1,926 of those bases code for the protein.
How a genome test reads WBP11
11
positions in WBP11 where ClinVar classes a change as pathogenic or likely pathogenic
1 of them (9.1%) falls in a region short reads find hard.
- Segmental duplications (1 site)Copies of at least 1 kb sharing at least 90% identity with another part of the genome (paralogues, pseudogenes); reads may align to the wrong copy.
A whole genome covers all 18.9 kb of WBP11, introns included, not only the 4.6 kb of exons.
