Moderate to strong nuclear staining was observed in most malignant cell. Several cases of lung, renal, ovarian, cervical and endometrial cancers were weakly stained or negative.
GENE INFORMATION

KIAA0105, MGC3925, Mum2
Description
Wilms tumor 1 associated protein (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
The Wilms tumor suppressor gene WT1 appears to play a role in both transcriptional and posttranscriptional regulation of certain cellular genes. This gene encodes a WT1-associating protein, which is a ubiquitously expressed nuclear protein. Like WT1 protein, this protein is localized throughout the nucleoplasm as well as in speckles and partially colocalizes with splicing factors. Alternative splicing of this gene results in several transcript variants encoding three different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2012]
