About MEX3C

Cytogenetic location: 18q21.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 18:51,174,550-51,197,681 (from NCBI)

This gene has 3 transcripts (splice variants), 144 orthologues and 3 paralogues. Broad expression in testis (RPKM 32.6), lymph node (RPKM 11.1) and 24 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a member of a family of proteins with two K homology (KH) RNA-binding domains and a C-terminal RING-finger domain. The protein interacts with mRNA via the KH domains, and the protein shuttles between the nucleus and cytoplasm. Polymorphisms in this gene may contribute to hypertension.
