Gene information for VCX3A (Homo sapiens) (Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)

Entrez gene ID 51481 Official gene symbol VCX3A Full name variable charge, X-linked 3A Aliases ,MGC118976,MGC125730,MGC125796,VCX-8r,VCX-A,VCX3,VCX8R,VCXA, Gene summary This gene belongs to the VCX/Y gene family, which has multiple members on both X and Y chromosomes, and all are expressed exclusively in male germ cells. The X-linked members are clustered on chromosome Xp22 and Y-linked members are two identical copies of the gene within a palindromic region on Yq11. The family members share a high degree of sequence identity, with the exception that a 30-bp unit is tandemly repeated in X-linked members but occurs only once in Y-linked members. The VCX gene cluster is polymorphic in terms of copy number; different individuals may have a different number of VCX genes. VCX/Y genes encode small and highly charged proteins of unknown function. The presence of a putative bipartite nuclear localization signal suggests that VCX/Y members are nuclear proteins. This gene contains 8 repeats of the 30-bp unit.
