Uxt - ubiquitously expressed prefoldin like chaperone Gene

Predicted to enable beta-tubulin binding activity; chromatin binding activity; and transcription corepressor activity. Predicted to be involved in centrosome cycle and negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to act upstream of or within apoptotic process. Predicted to be located in centrosome; cytoplasm; and nucleus. Predicted to be active in chromatin. Is expressed in several structures, including cerebellum; neural retina; and telencephalon. Orthologous to human UXT (ubiquitously expressed prefoldin like chaperone). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
