ALX3 - ALX homeobox 3 Gene

Also Known as FND; FND1

Species: Homo sapiens

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 257

About ALX3

Cytogenetic location: 1p13.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 1:110,059,870-110,070,672 (from NCBI)

This gene has 2 transcripts (splice variants), 177 orthologues, 50 paralogues and is associated with 3 phenotypes. Ubiquitous expression in skin (RPKM 1.8), endometrium (RPKM 1.4) and 24 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a nuclear protein with a homeobox DNA-binding domain that functions as a transcriptional regulator involved in cell-type differentiation and development. Preferential methylation of this gene's promoter is associated with advanced-stage neuroblastoma tumors. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
