Gene: TXLNG

Alternate names for this Gene: CXorf15|ELRG|FIAT|LSR5|TXLNGX

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a member of the taxilin family. The encoded protein binds to the C-terminal coiled-coil region of syntaxin family members 1A, 3A and 4A, and may play a role in intracellular vesicle trafficking. This gene is up-regulated by lipopolysaccharide and the gene product may be involved in cell cycle regulation. The related mouse protein was also shown to inhibit activating transcription factor 4-mediated transcription and thus regulate bone mass accrual. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Gene is located in Chromosome: X

Location in Chromosome : Xp22.2

Description of this Gene: taxilin gamma

Type of Gene: protein-coding
