Background
This gene encodes a protein containing a nuclear localization signal and an S-adenosyl-L-methionine binding motif typical of methyltransferases, suggesting that the encoded protein may act on DNA methylation. This gene is deleted in Williams syndrome, a multisystem developmental disorder caused by the deletion of contiguous genes at 7q11.23. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found.

Function
disease:Haploinsufficiency of WBSCR22 may be the cause of certain cardiovascular and musculo-skeletal abnormalities observed in Williams-Beuren syndrome (WBS) [MIM:194050]. WBS is a rare developmental disorder. It is a contiguous gene deletion syndrome involving genes from chromosome band 7q11.23.,function:Methyltransferase that may act on DNA.,similarity:Belongs to the methyltransferase superfamily.,tissue specificity:Strongly expressed in heart, skeletal muscle and kidney. Also expressed in spleen, liver, lung and testis.,
