MSL3 - MSL complex subunit 3 Gene
Also Known as MRSXBA; MRXS36; MRXSBA; MSL3L1
Species: Homo sapiens
About MSL3
This gene has 50 transcripts (splice variants), 234 orthologues, 2 paralogues and is associated with 2 phenotypes. Ubiquitous expression in lymph node (RPKM 13.7), appendix (RPKM 11.8) and 24 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a nuclear protein that is similar to the product of the Drosophila male-specific lethal-3 gene. The Drosophila protein plays a critical role in a dosage-compensation pathway, which equalizes X-linked gene expression in males and females. Thus, the human protein is thought to play a similar function in chromatin remodeling and transcriptional regulation, and it has been found as part of a complex that is responsible for histone H4 lysine-16 acetylation. This gene can undergo X inactivation. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. Related pseudogenes have been identified on chromosomes 2, 7 and 8. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2010]
