Research Abstract |
We have obtained the following findings during the research period : (1) Functional studies revealed that CXorf6 has a transactivation function for the canonical Notch target HES3, and is regulated bySF-1 that functions as a master gene for sex development ; (2) Knockdown experiments showed that CXorf6 has a regulatory function for the testicular steroidogenic enzymes ; (3) Mutation analysis identified further CXorf6 mutations in patients with hypospadias ; and (4) Knockout mouse experiments indicated that CXorf6 is involved in metabolic syndrome.
