TEX11

{{Short description|Protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens}} {{Infobox_gene}}

'''Testis expressed 11''' is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TEX11 gene. <ref name="entrez"> {{cite web | title = Entrez Gene: Testis expressed 11 | url = https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/56159 | access-date = 2018-03-03 }}</ref>

==Function==

This gene is X-linked and is expressed in only male germ cells. Two alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008].
