HMGXB3

HMGXB3 (also known as HMG box-containing protein 3) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the HMGXB3 gene. This protein is a member of the HMG-box family, which includes proteins that play a crucial role in DNA structure and regulation.

Function[edit | edit source]

HMGXB3 is a nuclear protein that is involved in the regulation of transcription, the process by which genetic information from DNA is copied into RNA. It is believed to play a role in the organization of chromatin, the material within the nucleus that contains DNA and proteins.

Clinical significance[edit | edit source]

While the exact role of HMGXB3 in human health and disease is not fully understood, it is thought to be involved in several cellular processes that are important for normal function. Mutations in the HMGXB3 gene have been associated with a variety of diseases, including certain types of cancer.
