Abundance of KLF15 as well as the expression of genes related to muscle atrophy are increased in skeletal muscle of diabetic model mice, and mice with muscle-specific KLF15 deficiency are protected from the diabetes-induced decline of skeletal muscle mass. Hyperglycemia upregulates the KLF15 protein in skeletal muscle of diabetic animals, which is achieved via downregulation of the E3 ubiquitin ligase WWP1.

WWP1 was upregulated in obese white adipose tissue in a p53-dependent manner. To investigate the functions of WWP1 in adipocytes, a proteome analysis of WWP1 overexpression (OE) and knockdown (KD) 3T3-L1 cells was performed. This analysis showed a positive correlation between WWP1 expression and the abundance of several antioxidative proteins.
Title: Identification of WWP1 as an obesity-associated E3 ubiquitin ligase with a protective role against oxidative stress in adipocytes.

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.

Status: VALIDATED

Description

Transcript Variant: This variant (2) has multiple coding region differences and initiates translation at a downstream start codon, compared to variant 1. The use of the start codon used in variant 1 would render the transcript a candidate for nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD). Leaky scanning may allow translation initiation at the downstream AUG, which is associated with a strong Kozak sequence. The resulting isoform (2) is shorter and has a distinct N-terminus compared to isoform 1.

Status: VALIDATED

Description

Transcript Variant: This variant (3) lacks an alternate internal exon, compared to isoform 1. This variant is represented as non-coding because the use of the 5'-most expected translational start codon, as used in variant 1, renders the transcript a candidate for nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD).
