It is included in a cluster of homeobox B genes located on chromosome 17. The encoded protein functions as a sequence-specific transcription factor that is involved in development, including that of lung and skin, and has been localized to both the nucleus and cytoplasm. Altered expression of this gene or a change in the subcellular localization of its protein is associated with some cases of acute myeloid leukemia and colorectal cancer. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]. * **UniProt Summary**: Sequence-specific transcription factor which is part of a developmental regulatory system that provides cells with specific positional identities on the anterior-posterior axis. |Homeobox| |erythrocyte homeostasis| |embryonic skeletal system morphogenesis| |RNA polymerase II distal enhancer sequence-specific DNA binding| |myeloid cell homeostasis| |embryonic skeletal system development| |homeostasis of number of cells| |anterior/posterior pattern specification| |skeletal system morphogenesis| |embryonic organ morphogenesis| |regionalization| |embryonic organ development| |pattern specification process| |skeletal system development| |embryonic morphogenesis| |chordate embryonic development| |embryo development ending in birth or egg hatching| |animal organ morphogenesis| |embryo development| |RNA binding| |DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific| |homeostatic process| \\ === CRISPR Data === ^Screen^Score^ |[[:results:exp493|IL-3 9ng/ml R08 exp493]]|-1.86| No correlation found to any other genes in chemogenomics.
