Vsx1 - visual system homeobox 1 Gene

Also Known as CHX10-like

Species: Mus musculus

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 114889

Summary

Predicted to enable transcription cis-regulatory region binding activity. Acts upstream of or within neuron maturation; retinal bipolar neuron differentiation; and visual perception. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in 1st branchial arch; 1st branchial arch maxillary component; brain; embryo; and eye. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in corneal dystrophy; keratoconus; and posterior polymorphous corneal dystrophy 1. Orthologous to human VSX1 (visual system homeobox 1).
