About BEX4

Cytogenetic location: Xq22.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): X:103,215,092-103,217,246 (from NCBI)

This gene has 2 transcripts (splice variants) and 80 orthologues. Ubiquitous expression in brain (RPKM 111.7), thyroid (RPKM 67.9) and 23 other tissues.

Summary

This gene is a member of the brain expressed X-linked gene family. The proteins encoded by some of the Other members of this family act as transcription elongation factors which allow RNA polymerase II to escape pausing during elongation. Multiple alternatively spliced variants, encoding the same protein, have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011]
