ALX3 - ALX homeobox 3 Gene
Also Known as FND; FND1
Species: Homo sapiens
About ALX3
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]
