| Function | Transcription factor that acts as a key regulator of spermatogenesis. Acts by regulating expression of genes required for the haploid phase during spermiogenesis, such as genes required for cilium assembly and function (By similarity). Recognizes and binds the X-box, a regulatory motif with DNA sequence 5'-GTNRCC(0-3N)RGYAAC-3' present on promoters (PubMed:10330134). Probably activates transcription of the testis-specific histone gene H1-6 (By similarity). |

Background
This gene is a member of the regulatory factor X genefamily, which encodes transcription factors that contain ahighly-conserved winged helix DNA binding domain. The proteinencoded by this gene is structurally related to regulatory factorsX1, X3, X4, and X5. It is a transcriptional activator that can bindDNA as a monomer or as a heterodimer with other RFX family members.This protein can bind to cis elements in the promoter of the IL-5receptor alpha gene. Two transcript variants encoding differentisoforms have been described for this gene, and both variantsutilize alternative polyadenylation sites.

Foundational characteristics of cancer include proliferation, angiogenesis, migration, evasion of apoptosis, and cellular immortality. Find key markers for these cellular processes and antibodies to detect them.
The SUMOplot™ Analysis Program predicts and scores sumoylation sites in your protein. SUMOylation is a post-translational modification involved in various cellular processes, such as nuclear-cytosolic transport, transcriptional regulation, apoptosis, protein stability, response to stress, and progression through the cell cycle.
The Autophagy Receptor Motif Plotter predicts and scores autophagy receptor binding sites in your protein. Identifying proteins connected to this pathway is critical to understanding the role of autophagy in physiological as well as pathological processes such as development, differentiation, neurodegenerative diseases, stress, infection, and cancer.
