ZXDB (Zinc finger X-linked protein ZXDB) is a gene whose normal job is to hold cell growth in check. The public catalogues list it as a tumour suppressor, and it is called a cancer driver by mutation analysis of patient cohorts. Tied to Breast cancer.
Cooperates with CIITA to promote transcription of MHC class I and MHC class II genes.
IntOGen calls it a driver in 1 cohort (0 activating, 1 loss-of-function), covering Invasive Breast Carcinoma.
In plain words · ZXDB (Zinc finger X-linked protein ZXDB) is a gene whose normal job is to hold cell growth in check. The public catalogues list it as a tumour suppressor, and it is called a cancer driver by mutation analysis of patient cohorts. Tied to Breast cancer.

No product in this corpus aims at ZXDB yet. Because the protein is lost rather than overactive, drugs either restore its function or exploit the weakness its loss leaves (synthetic lethality).
First described 1993. Earliest sequence paper UniProt cites for the protein: Greig G.M. et al, Hum. Mol. Genet, 1993, "Duplicated zinc finger protein genes on the proximal short arm of the human X chromosome: isolation, characterization and X-inactivation studies". Source.
