This gene has 2 transcripts (splice variants), 118 orthologues and 42 paralogues. Biased expression in endometrium (RPKM 5.2), kidney (RPKM 2.8) and 10 other tissues.

Summary

In vertebrates, the genes encoding the class of transcription factors called homeobox genes are found in clusters named A, B, C, and D on four separate chromosomes. Expression of these proteins is spatially and temporally regulated during embryonic development. This gene is part of the A cluster on chromosome 7 and encodes a DNA-binding transcription factor which may regulate gene expression, morphogenesis, and differentiation.
