Pax8 - paired box 8 Gene

Also Known as Pax-8

Species: Mus musculus

Gene Type: protein coding

Gene ID: 18510

Summary

This gene encodes a member of a family of transcription factors that contain a characteristic N-terminal paired DNA-binding domain. The encoded protein is important for proper differentiation of the thyroid and the kidney. Alternatively spliced transcript variants of this gene have been described, but their full-length nature is not known. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2013]
