DMBX1

Gene Information
  • Official Symbol: DMBX1
  • Official Name: diencephalon/mesencephalon homeobox 1
  • Aliases and Previous Symbols: N/A
  • Entrez ID: 127343
  • UniProt: Q8NFW5
  • Interactions: BioGRID
  • PubMed articles: Open PubMed
  • OMIM: Open OMIM
Function Summary
  • Entrez Summary: This gene encodes a member of the bicoid sub-family of homeodomain-containing transcription factors. The encoded protein acts as a transcription factor and may play a role in brain and sensory organ development. Two transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008].
  • UniProt Summary: Functions as a transcriptional repressor. May repress OTX2-mediated transactivation by forming a heterodimer with OTX2 on the P3C (5'-TAATCCGATTA-3') sequence. Required for brain development (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
