Also known as FORWOX1SDR41C1
Summary
WWOX (WW domain containing oxidoreductase, HGNC:12799) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 16q23.1-q23.2, encoding WW domain-containing oxidoreductase (Q9NZC7). Putative oxidoreductase.
This gene encodes a member of the short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR) protein family. This gene spans the FRA16D common chromosomal fragile site and appears to function as a tumor suppressor gene. Expression of the encoded protein is able to induce apoptosis, while defects in this gene are associated with multiple types of cancer. Disruption of this gene is also associated with autosomal recessive spinocerebellar ataxia 12. Disruption of a similar gene in mouse results in impaired steroidogenesis, additionally suggesting a metabolic function for the protein. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Function. Putative oxidoreductase. Acts as a tumor suppressor and plays a role in apoptosis. Required for normal bone development. 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.
Subunit / interactions. Interacts with TP53, p73/TP73 and MAPK8. Interacts with MAPT/TAU, RUNX2 and HYAL2. Forms a ternary complex with TP53 and MDM2. Interacts with ERBB4, LITAF and WBP1. Interacts with DVL1, DVL2 and DVL3. May interact with FAM189B and SCOTIN. Interacts with TNK2. Interacts with TMEM207. Interacts (via WW domain) with VOPP1.
Subcellular location. Cytoplasm. Nucleus. Mitochondrion. Golgi apparatus. Lysosome.
Tissue specificity. 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.
Post-translational modifications. Phosphorylated upon genotoxic stress. Phosphorylation of Tyr-33 regulates interaction with TP53, TP73 and MAPK8. May also regulate proapoptotic activity. Phosphorylation by TNK2 is associated with polyubiquitination and degradation. Ubiquitinated when phosphorylated by TNK2, leading to its degradation.
Disease relevance. Defects in WWOX may be involved in several cancer types. The gene spans the second most common chromosomal fragile site (FRA16D) which is frequently altered in cancers. Alteration of the expression and expression of some isoforms is associated with cancers. However, it is still unclear if alteration of WWOX is directly implicated in cancerogenesis or if it corresponds to a secondary effect. Esophageal cancer (ESCR) [MIM:133239] A malignancy of the esophagus. The most common types are esophageal squamous cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma. Cancer of the esophagus remains a devastating disease because it is usually not detected until it has progressed to an advanced incurable stage. The disease may be caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Spinocerebellar ataxia, autosomal recessive, 12 (SCAR12) [MIM:614322] A form of spinocerebellar ataxia, a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of cerebellar disorders. Patients show progressive incoordination of gait and often poor coordination of hands, speech and eye movements, due to degeneration of the cerebellum with variable involvement of the brainstem and spinal cord. SCAR12 is additionally characterized by onset of generalized seizures in infancy, and delayed psychomotor development with intellectual disability. Some patients may also show spasticity. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Developmental and epileptic encephalopathy 28 (DEE28) [MIM:616211] A form of epileptic encephalopathy, a heterogeneous group of severe early-onset epilepsies characterized by refractory seizures, neurodevelopmental impairment, and poor prognosis. Development is normal prior to seizure onset, after which cognitive and motor delays become apparent. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Domain organisation. The WW 1 domain mediates interaction with TP53, and probably TP73, TFAP2C, LITAF and WBP1.
Similarity. Belongs to the short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR) 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.
