Gene information for TOX3 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID27324
Official gene symbolTOX3
Full nameTOX high mobility group box family member 3
Aliases,CAGF9,TNRC9,
Gene summaryThe 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.
