Target Information

The Wilms Tumor 1 gene encodes one of the WPP domain-interacting proteins (Wilms Tumor 1/AT5G11390, WIT2/AT1G68910) required for RanGAP nuclear envelope association in root tip cells.
Ran GTPase plays essential roles in multiple cellular processes, including nucleocytoplasmic transport, spindle formation, and postmitotic nuclear envelope reassembly.
The cytoplasmic Ran GTPase activating protein RanGAP is critical to establish a functional RanGTP/RanGDP gradient across the nuclear envelope and is associated with the outer surface of the nuclear envelope in metazoan and higher plant cells.
Arabidopsis thaliana RanGAP association with the root tip nuclear envelope requires a family of likely plant-specific nucleoporins combining coiled-coil and transmembrane domains (CC-TMD) and WPP domain-interacting proteins (WIPs).
Wilms Tumor 1 and WIT2 have been identified as a second family of CC-TMD proteins, structurally similar, yet distinct from the WIP family, that is required for RanGAP nuclear envelope association in root tip cells.
