ARMCX3, ALEX3, BM-017, Armadillo repeat-containing X-linked protein 3, ARM protein lost in epithelial cancers on chromosome X 3, Protein ALEX3
armadillo repeat containing, X-linked 3(ARMCX3) Homo sapiens This gene encodes a member of the ALEX family of proteins which may play a role in tumor suppression. The encoded protein contains a potential N-terminal transmembrane domain and a single Armadillo (arm) repeat. Other proteins containing the arm repeat are involved in development, maintenance of tissue integrity, and tumorigenesis. This gene is closely localized with other family members on the X chromosome. Three transcript variants encoding the same protein have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008],similarity:Contains 3 ARM repeats.,
