Organism: Homo sapiens
Lineage: Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo
Also known as: CAGF9; TNRC9
Summary: The protein encoded by this gene contains an HMG-box, indicating that it may be involved in bending and unwinding of DNA and alteration of chromatin structure. The C-terminus of the encoded protein is glutamine-rich due to CAG repeats in the coding sequence. A minor allele of this gene has been implicated in an elevated risk of breast cancer. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Apr 2009]
Expression: Biased expression in stomach (RPKM 5.0), colon (RPKM 3.6) and 13 other tissues See more

Study identified TOX3 as a novel cancer suppressor gene in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). Hypermethylation in the promoter region was associated with its functional loss and poor outcome in ccRCC patients. Downregulation of TOX3 could accelerate the EMT by decreasing transcriptional repression of SNAI1 and SNAI2. Its overexpression inhibited RCC cell growth, migration and invasion.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
