High impact information on UXT

  • In addition, overexpression of UXT disrupts centrosome structure [1].
  • UXT is a novel centrosomal protein essential for cell viability [1].
  • Furthermore, abrogation of UXT protein expression by small interfering RNA knockdown leads to cell death [1].
  • In a systematic search for novel genes, we identified a novel transcript, UXT (HGMW-approved symbol), close to the ELK1 locus in Xp11.23-p11.22 [2].
  • We showed that UXT is ubiquitously expressed and subject to X-inactivation [2].
  • UXT forms a evolutionary conserved prefoldin like complex which contains NNX3, PFD2, PFD4r, PFD6, RPB5, TIP48 and TIP49 [3]
 

Associations of UXT with chemical compounds

  • Based on these findings, we propose a transcriptional regulatory circuit for the developmental expression of ART-27 that includes repression by chromatin modification through a trichostatin A-sensitive factor and activation upon growth factor stimulation via CREB [4].
