SPANXC - SPANX family member C Gene
Also Known as CTp11; CT11.3; SPANXE; SPANX-C; SPANX-E
Species: Homo sapiens
About SPANXC
This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 3 orthologues and 4 paralogues. Restricted expression toward testis (RPKM 12.8).
Summary
Temporally regulated transcription and translation of several testis-specific genes is required to initiate the series of molecular and morphological changes in the male germ cell lineage necessary for the formation of mature spermatozoa. This gene is a member of the SPANX family, which is located in a gene cluster on chromosome X. The SPANX genes encode differentially expressed testis-specific proteins that localize to various subcellular compartments. This particular gene encodes a protein that localizes to the nucleus and is expressed in highly metastatic cell lines, making the protein a potential diagnostic and prognostic marker. The protein belongs to a family of Cancer/testis antigens and represents a potential target for Cancer Immunotherapy. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
