Gene information for MXD3 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID83463
Official gene symbolMXD3
Full nameMAX dimerization protein 3
Aliases,BHLHC13,FLJ35523,MAD3,MGC2383,MYX,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a member of the Myc superfamily of basic helix-loop-helix leucine zipper transcriptional regulators. The encoded protein forms a heterodimer with the cofactor MAX which binds specific E-box DNA motifs in the promoters of target genes and regulates their transcription. Disruption of the MAX-MXD3 complex is associated with uncontrolled cell proliferation and tumorigenesis. Transcript variants of this gene encoding different isoforms have been described.[provided by RefSeq]
