Gene: NXN
Alternate names for this Gene: NRX|RRS2|TRG-4
Gene Summary: This gene encodes a member of the thioredoxin superfamily, a group of small, multifunctional redox-active proteins. Members of this family are characterized by a conserved active motif called the thioredoxin fold that catalyzes disulfide bond formation and isomerization. The encoded protein acts a redox-dependent regulator of the Wnt signaling pathway and is involved in cell growth and differentiation.
Gene is located in Chromosome: 17
Location in Chromosome : 17p13.3
Description of this Gene: nucleoredoxin
Type of Gene: protein-coding
