Armadillo repeat containing X-linked 6 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ARMCX6 gene located on the X-chromosome.[5]

It is one of six armadillo repeats containing X-linked proteins (ARMCX1, ARMCX2, ARMCX3, ARMCX4, ARMCX5, and ARMCX6 (this protein)).

The function of this protein is unknown at this time.

Secondary Structure

The secondary structure of ARMCX6 is predicted to be similar to cyanase. A comparison of the two sequences is shown below.[6][7]

Expression

Microarray data show that ARMCX6 is highly expressed during earliest stages of spermatogenesis in mice.[8][9][10]
