Summary: Predicted to enable cell adhesion molecule binding activity; cytoskeletal protein binding activity; and protein domain specific binding activity. Involved in myoblast fusion; skeletal muscle tissue development; and slit diaphragm assembly. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including JNK cascade; cell adhesion; and positive regulation of actin filament polymerization. Located in cell projection; focal adhesion; and plasma membrane. Is active in cell periphery. Is expressed in central nervous system; metanephros; and skeletal muscle. Used to study nephrotic syndrome. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in nephrotic syndrome type 1. Orthologous to human NPHS1 (NPHS1 adhesion molecule, nephrin).

Here, we found the dynamic changes of Notch1 were coincided with autophagy: they both increased during kidney development and podocyte differentiation...to better understand the relationship between Notch signalling and autophagy in podocyte differentiation, rapamycin was added to enhance autophagy levels in DAPT-treated cells, and as a result, nephrin was recovered and DAPT-induced injury was ameliorated
Title: Autophagy is involved in mouse kidney development and podocyte differentiation regulated by Notch signalling.
WHSC1L1-L acts as a histone methyltransferase in podocytes and regulates nephrin gene expression, which may in turn contribute to the integrity of the slit diaphragm of the glomerular filtration barrier.
Title: Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome candidate 1-like 1 epigenetically regulates nephrin gene expression.
Data (including data from studies using transgenic mice, an murine experimental model of diabetes, and mouse/human cell lines) suggest prostaglandin I2 receptor (Ptgir) is involved in insulin secretion in pancreatic beta-cells and in permselectivity in glomerular podocytes; the mechanism appears to involve regulation of post-translational phosphorylation of nephrin.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
