Background
Melanoma-associated antigen B1, Cancer/testis antigen 3.1, CT3.1, DSS-AHC critical interval MAGE superfamily 10, DAM10, MAGE-B1 antigen, MAGE-XP antigenMAGEB1 is a member of the MAGEB gene family. The members of this family have their entire coding sequences located in the last exon, and the encoded proteins show 50 to 68 % sequence identity to each other. The promoters and first exons of the MAGEB genes show considerable variability, suggesting that the existence of this gene family enables the same function to be expressed under different transcriptional controls. MAGEB1 is localized in the DSS (dosage-sensitive sex reversal) critical region, and expressed in testis and in a significant fraction of tumors of various histological types. MAGEB1 and other MAGEB members are clustered on chromosome Xp22-p21. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for MAGEB1, however, the full length nature of some variants has not been defined. MAGEB4 is expressed in testis.
