About MEOX2

Cytogenetic location: 7p21.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 7:15,611,212-15,686,683 (from NCBI)

This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 233 orthologues and 1 paralogue. Biased expression in placenta (RPKM 25.8), fat (RPKM 23.2) and 13 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a member of a subfamily of non-clustered, diverged, antennapedia-like homeobox-containing genes. The encoded protein may play a role in the regulation of vertebrate limb myogenesis. Mutations in the related mouse protein may be associated with craniofacial and/or skeletal abnormalities, in addition to neurovascular dysfunction observed in Alzheimer's disease.
