Rax - retina and anterior neural fold homeobox Gene
Also Known as Rx; ey1; ey-1; 7530406A22Rik; E130303K03Rik
Species: Mus musculus
Summary
Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including camera-type eye development; hypothalamus development; and limb development. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; eye; genitourinary system; hemolymphoid system; and neural ectoderm. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in isolated microphthalmia 3. Orthologous to human RAX (retina and anterior neural fold homeobox). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
