About LXN

Cytogenetic location: 3q25.32 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 3:158,666,414-158,672,648 (from NCBI)

This gene has 2 transcripts (splice variants), 191 orthologues and 1 paralogue. Ubiquitous expression in ovary (RPKM 17.1), gall bladder (RPKM 15.4) and 24 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes the only known protein inhibitor of zinc-dependent metallocarboxypeptidases. The encoded protein, latexin, downregulates the population size of hematopoietic stem cells. This protein is found to be downregulated in Cancer cells because of promoter hypermethylation. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2020]
