JPX Gene Summary [Human]
JPX is a nonprotein-coding RNA transcribed from a gene within the X-inactivation center (XIC; MIM 314670) that appears to participate in X chromosome inactivation (Tian et al., 2010 [PubMed 21029862]).[supplied by OMIM, Feb 2011]

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in human JPX often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
- double-stranded DNA binding
- sequence-specific DNA binding
