About Lhx4

Summary

Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; RNA polymerase II transcription regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity; and methyl-CpG binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including negative regulation of apoptotic process; neuron differentiation; and placenta development. Predicted to be located in nucleoplasm. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; genitourinary system; sensory organ; and skeleton. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in panhypopituitarism. Orthologous to human LHX4 (LIM homeobox 4). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
