TOX3 - TOX high mobility group box family member 3 Gene
Also Known as CAGF9; TNRC9
Species: Homo sapiens
About TOX3
This gene has 5 transcripts (splice variants), 204 orthologues and 20 paralogues. Biased expression in stomach (RPKM 5.0), colon (RPKM 3.6) and 13 other tissues.
Summary
The protein encoded by this gene contains an HMG-box, indicating that it may be involved in bending and unwinding of DNA and alteration of chromatin structure. The C-terminus of the encoded protein is glutamine-rich due to CAG repeats in the coding sequence. A minor allele of this gene has been implicated in an elevated risk of breast Cancer. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Apr 2009]
