WAC Proteins

Protein Information

The WW domain containing adaptor with coiled-coil protein (WAC) contains a WW domain that mediates protein-protein interactions and colocalizes with RNA splicing factor SC35. Further studies have indicated that WAC is a functional partner of the RNF20/40 complex that ubiquitinates Histone H2B, and that WAC regulates H2B ubiquitination. WAC targets RNF20/40 to associate with RNA polymerase II complex for H2B ubiquitination at active transcription sites. WAC-dependent transcription is also important for cell-cycle checkpoint activation in response to genotoxic stress.
