GenAge entry for MXD1 (Homo sapiens)
Gene name (HAGRID: 209)
- HGNC symbol
- MXD1
- Aliases
- MAD1; bHLHc58; MAD
- Common name
- MAX dimerization protein 1
Potential relevance to the human ageing process
- Main reason for selection
- Entry selected based on evidence linking the gene product to a pathway or mechanism linked to ageing
- Description
MXD1 is involved in apoptosis. It forms with MAX a transcriptional repressor and might antagonize MYC function [886]. There is no evidence directly linking MXD1 to human ageing.
