About ARMCX1

Cytogenetic location: Xq22.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): X:101,550,547-101,554,700 (from NCBI)

This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 153 orthologues and 11 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in ovary (RPKM 26.3), adrenal (RPKM 20.2) and 24 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the ALEX family of proteins and may play a role in tumor suppression. The encoded protein contains a potential N-terminal transmembrane domain and two Armadillo (arm) repeats. Other proteins containing the arm repeat are involved in development, maintenance of tissue integrity, and tumorigenesis. This gene is closely localized with other family members, including ALEX2 and ALEX3, on the X chromosome. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
