About XAF1

Cytogenetic location: 17p13.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 17:6,755,447-6,775,647 (from NCBI)

This gene has 19 transcripts (splice variants), 166 orthologues and 1 paralogue. Ubiquitous expression in spleen (RPKM 13.4), lung (RPKM 8.3) and 24 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a protein which binds to and counteracts the inhibitory effect of a member of the IAP (inhibitor of Apoptosis) protein family. IAP proteins bind to and inhibit caspases which are activated during Apoptosis. The proportion of IAPs and proteins which interfere with their activity, such as the encoded protein, affect the progress of the Apoptosis signaling pathway. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2012]
