High impact information on UBXD6

Cloning and characterization of Rep-8 (D8S2298E) in the human chromosome 8p11.2-p12 [1].
Northern blot analysis showed that it is expressed abundantly in the testis and ovary, suggesting that the Rep-8 gene product may play a role in reproduction [1].
Southern blot experiments showed that the Rep-8 gene exists as a single copy per haploid [1].
A novel human gene referred to as the Rep-8 gene (D8S2298E) was cloned by a combination of exon trapping, thermal asymmetric interlaced-PCR, and screening of a cDNA library [1].
We examined the nucleotide sequence requirements for faithful and efficient transcription in a wheat germ chromatin extract (Yamazaki et al., Plant Mol Biol Rep 8: 114-123) [2].
