TOX thymocyte selection associated high mobility group box

Gene ID: 9760, updated on 17-Sep-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: TOX1

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene contains a HMG box DNA binding domain. HMG boxes are found in many eukaryotic proteins involved in chromatin assembly, transcription and replication. This protein may function to regulate T-cell development.[provided by RefSeq, Apr 2009]
