Biochem/physiol Actions: | Expression of the c-myc gene, which produces an oncogenic transcription factor, is tightly regulated in normal cells but is frequently deregulated in human cancers. The MXI1 gene encodes a transcriptional repressor protein thought to negatively regulate MYC function, and is therefore a potential tumor suppressor. This protein inhibits the transcriptional activity of MYC by competing for MAX, another basic helix-loop-helix protein that binds to MYC and is required for its function. Defects in MXI1 are frequently found in patients with prostate tumors.Expression of the c-myc gene, which produces an oncogenic transcription factor, is tightly regulated in normal cells but is frequently deregulated in human cancers.

This protein inhibits the transcriptional activity of MYC by competing for MAX, another basic helix-loop-helix protein that binds to MYC and is required for its function. Defects in this gene are frequently found in patients with prostate tumors. Three alternatively spliced transcripts encoding different isoforms have been described. Additional alternatively spliced transcripts may exist but the products of these transcripts have not been verified experimentally. |

General description: | Max interactor 1 (MXI1) is a bHLH-Zip containing protein that associates with Max to bind Myc-Max recognition sites. MXI1 mutations have been linked to prostate cancer. Rabbit Anti-MXI1 antibody recognizes human, mouse, rat, chicken, bovine, zebrafish, and canine MXI1. |
