Enriched in arcade cell; excretory gland cell; pharyngeal muscle cell; and sensory neurons based on RNA-seq and single-cell RNA-seq studies. Is affected by several genes including
daf-16;
daf-2; and
skn-1 based on microarray; tiling array; and RNA-seq studies. Is affected by sixteen chemicals including 1-methylnicotinamide; D-glucose; and stavudine based on RNA-seq and microarray studies. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Ehlers-Danlos syndrome and vesicoureteral reflux. Human TNXB enables collagen fibril binding activity. Is predicted to encode a protein with the following domains: Fibronectin type III superfamily; TM proximal of protein tyrosine phosphatase, receptor type J; PTPRJ, transmembrane domain; Fibronectin type III; Immunoglobulin-like fold; and Fibronectin type III domain. Is an ortholog of human TNXA (tenascin XA (pseudogene)) and TNXB (tenascin XB).
