Disease relevance of IXL

 

High impact information on IXL

  • In the present study, we report the identification and characterization of a novel human gene, (Drosophila) intersex-like (IXL), from a human embryonic heart cDNA library [2].
  • IXL, a new subunit of the mammalian Mediator complex, functions as a transcriptional suppressor [2].
  • In COS-7 cells, IXL protein is localized to nucleus and cytoplasm [2].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of IXL

  • Northern blot analysis indicates that IXL is expressed in various tissues of human adult and during three different developmental stages of embryo [2].
