SP8 - Sp8 transcription factor Gene
Also Known as BTD
Species: Homo sapiens
About SP8
This gene has 2 transcripts (splice variants), 173 orthologues and 22 paralogues. Biased expression in prostate (RPKM 3.9) and skin (RPKM 0.2).
Summary
The protein encoded by this gene is an SP family transcription factor that in mouse has been shown to be essential for proper limb development. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2011]
