Protein SSXT is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SS18 gene.[1][2][3]

Function

SS18 is a member of the human SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex.[4][5][6]

Clinical significance

SS18 is involved in a chromosomal translocation commonly found in synovial sarcoma.[7]

Interactions

SS18 has been shown to interact with:
