CC -!- FUNCTION: Transcription factor that acts as a key regulator of
CC spermatogenesis (By similarity). Acts by regulating expression of genes
CC required for the haploid phase during spermiogenesis, such as genes
CC required for cilium assembly and function (By similarity). Recognizes
CC and binds the X-box, a regulatory motif with DNA sequence 5'-GTNRCC(0-
CC 3N)RGYAAC-3' present on promoters (PubMed:14743396, PubMed:15526285,
CC PubMed:16676351, PubMed:18247329). Probably activates transcription of
CC the testis-specific histone gene H1-6 (PubMed:14743396,
CC PubMed:15526285, PubMed:16676351, PubMed:18247329).
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P48379, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14743396,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:15526285, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16676351,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:18247329}.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Homodimer; probably only forms homodimers in testis.
CC Heterodimer; heterodimerizes with RFX1 and RFX3.
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P48379}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU00858,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:16676351}. Cytoplasm {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16676351}.
CC Note=Mainly expressed in the nucleus and at lower level in cytoplasm.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16676351}.
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed at highest level in testis. Expressed at
CC lower level in thymus. Also expressed in stomach, kidney, liver, brain
CC and heart. Weakly expressed in spleen and lung (PubMed:16676351).
CC Within testis, most abundantly present in spermatocytes: present from
CC pachytene spermatocytes to early spermatids (at protein level)
CC (PubMed:15229132, PubMed:16676351). Also present in non-germinal
CC tissues (PubMed:16676351). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15229132,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:16676351}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the RFX family. {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-
CC ProRule:PRU00858}.
