== Function Summary ==
* **Entrez Summary**: This gene encodes a member of a large protein family which contains the LIM domain, a unique cysteine-rich zinc-binding domain. The encoded protein is a transcription factor involved in the control of differentiation and development of the pituitary gland. Mutations in this gene cause combined pituitary hormone deficiency 4. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2010].
* **UniProt Summary**: May play a critical role in the development of respiratory control mechanisms and in the normal growth and maturation of the lung. {ECO:0000250}.
