WAPL (wings apart-like), also known as WAPAL or FOE, is a 1,190 amino acid protein that contains one WAPL domain and may play an important role in cell growth (1). It is expressed in an isoform dependent manner in heart, skeletal muscle (isoform 2) and uterine cervix tumor tissue (isoform 1) (1,2,4). WAPL is involved in sister-chromatid adhesion and promotes release of cohesin from chromosomes by directly interacting with its regulatory subunits (3,4). WAPL is a new regulator of the development and metastasis of cancerous tissue (4,5).
