Function
- may play role in B-cell differentiation, neural development & spermatogenesis
- involved in regulation of the CD19 gene, a B-lymphoid-specific target gene
- interacts with DAXX (putative)
- binds DNA as a monomer
- binds TLE4 O-glycosylated (probable)
Structure
contains 1 paired domain
Compartment
Expression
- expressed at early B-cell differentiation, in the developing CNS & in adult testis
Pathology
- chromosomal translocation t(9;18)(p13;q11.2) involving PAX5 with ZNF521 is a cause of acute lymphoblastic leukemia
- chromosomal translocation t(9;3)(p13;p14.1) involving PAX5 with FOXP1
- chromosomal translocation t(9;12)(p13;p13) involving PAX5 with ETV6
