Summary
WTAP (WT1 associated protein, HGNC:16846) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 6q25.3, encoding Pre-mRNA-splicing regulator WTAP (Q15007). Associated component of the WMM complex, a complex that mediates N6-methyladenosine (m6A) methylation of RNAs, a modification that plays a role in the efficiency of mRNA splicing and RNA processing. It is a selective cancer dependency (DepMap: 66.6% of cell lines).
The Wilms tumor suppressor gene WT1 appears to play a role in both transcriptional and posttranscriptional regulation of certain cellular genes. This gene encodes a WT1-associating protein, which is a ubiquitously expressed nuclear protein. Like WT1 protein, this protein is localized throughout the nucleoplasm as well as in speckles and partially colocalizes with splicing factors. Alternative splicing of this gene results in several transcript variants encoding three different isoforms.

Function. Associated component of the WMM complex, a complex that mediates N6-methyladenosine (m6A) methylation of RNAs, a modification that plays a role in the efficiency of mRNA splicing and RNA processing. Required for accumulation of METTL3 and METTL14 to nuclear speckle. Acts as a mRNA splicing regulator. Regulates G2/M cell-cycle transition by binding to the 3’ UTR of CCNA2, which enhances its stability. Impairs WT1 DNA-binding ability and inhibits expression of WT1 target genes.
Subunit / interactions. Component of the WMM complex, a N6-methyltransferase complex composed of a catalytic subcomplex, named MAC, and of an associated subcomplex, named MACOM. The MAC subcomplex is composed of METTL3 and METTL14. The MACOM subcomplex is composed of WTAP, ZC3H13, CBLL1/HAKAI, VIRMA, and, in some cases of RBM15 (RBM15 or RBM15B). Interacts with WT1. Also a component of a MACOM-like complex, named WTAP complex, composed of WTAP, ZC3H13, CBLL1, VIRMA, RBM15, BCLAF1 and THRAP3.
Subcellular location. Nucleus speckle. Nucleus. Nucleoplasm. Cytoplasm.
Tissue specificity. Ubiquitously expressed.
Induction. In smooth muscle cells, up-regulated after serum withdrawal, when cells become mature and non proliferative.
Similarity. Belongs to the fl(2)d family.

Enriched among interaction partners
Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 115 IntAct physical interaction partners (hypergeometric vs the genome-wide background, BH-FDR, gene-set size 15–500, ranked by fold). A functional readout of the neighbourhood — distinct from this gene’s own memberships above, and biased toward well-studied / hub proteins, so read it as themes rather than proof.
