Human WWOX wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 16q23 and is approximately 1113 kb in length. This allele, which encodes WW domain-containing oxidoreductase protein, is involved in tumor suppression, apoptosis and oxidation/reduction. Mutation of the gene is associated with early infantile epileptic encephalopathy 28, somatic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, and autosomal recessive spinocerebellar ataxia 12.
