MKX - mohawk homeobox Gene
Also Known as IFRX; IRXL1; C10orf48
Species: Homo sapiens
About MKX
This gene has 4 transcripts (splice variants), 279 orthologues and 6 paralogues. Biased expression in prostate (RPKM 5.8), ovary (RPKM 4.5) and 13 other tissues.
Summary
The protein encoded by this gene is an IRX family-related homeobox protein that may play a role in cell adhesion. Studies in mice suggest that this protein may be a regulator of tendon development. Two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Jun 2011]
