Summary
WDR62 is recruited to stress granules and mediates a non-classical MAPK8 (JNK) activation.
Entrez Gene
Summary This gene is proposed to play a role in cerebral cortical development. Mutations in this gene have been associated with microencephaly, cortical malformations, and mental retardation. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2011]
