About Evx2

Summary

This gene is located at the 5' end of the Hoxd gene cluster on chromosome 2. The encoded protein is a homeobox transcription factor that is related to the protein encoded by the Drosophila even-skipped (eve) gene, a member of the pair-rule class of segmentation genes. The encoded protein plays a role in limb morphogenesis. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2015]
