Function |
Transcriptional regulator which functions as a general RNA polymerase II transcription inhibitor. In cooperation with 7SK snRNA sequesters P-TEFb in a large inactive 7SK snRNP complex preventing RNA polymerase II phosphorylation and subsequent transcriptional elongation. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15713661, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15713662}.
|
Subcellular Location |
Nucleus {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15994294}.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Ubiquitously expressed with higher expression in testis. HEXIM1 and HEXIM2 are differentially expressed. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15713661}.
