The WRAP53 gene was first identified by Marianne Farnebo (maiden name Hammarsund) at Karolinska Institutet in 2006. In 2009 the WRAP53β (alias TCAB1, WDR79 and WRAP53) protein was described by Steven Artandi (Stanford University), Joan Steitz (Yale University) and Marianne Farnebo (Karolinska Institutet) independently.
