About MLX

Cytogenetic location: 17q21.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 17:42,567,100-42,573,203 (from NCBI)

This gene has 11 transcripts (splice variants), 207 orthologues, 3 paralogues and is associated with 1 phenotype. Ubiquitous expression in duodenum (RPKM 29.5), small intestine (RPKM 29.2) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

The product of this gene belongs to the family of basic helix-loop-helix leucine zipper (bHLH-Zip) transcription factors. These factors form heterodimers with Mad proteins and play a role in proliferation, determination and differentiation. This gene product may act to diversify Mad family function by its restricted association with a subset of the Mad family of transcriptional repressors, namely, Mad1 and Mad4. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
