Gene Type: protein coding

Gene ID: 26609

About VCX

Cytogenetic location: Xp22.31 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): X:7,842,262-7,844,143 (from NCBI)

This gene has 5 transcripts (splice variants), 34 orthologues and 5 paralogues. Restricted expression toward testis (RPKM 23.7).

Summary

This gene belongs to the VCX/Y gene family, which has multiple members on both X and Y chromosomes, and all are expressed exclusively in male germ cells. The X-linked members are clustered on chromosome Xp22 and Y-linked members are two identical copies of the gene within a palindromic region on Yq11. The family members share a high degree of sequence identity, with the exception that a 30-bp unit is tandemly repeated in X-linked members but occurs only once in Y-linked members. The VCX gene cluster is polymorphic in terms of copy number; different individuals may have a different number of VCX genes. VCX/Y genes encode small and highly charged proteins of unknown function. The presence of a putative bipartite nuclear localization signal suggests that VCX/Y members are nuclear proteins. This gene contains 10 repeats of the 30-bp unit. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
