Gene ID: 5081

About PAX7

Cytogenetic location: 1p36.13 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 1:18,630,846-18,748,866 (from NCBI)

This gene has 3 transcripts (splice variants), 267 orthologues, 50 paralogues and is associated with 86 phenotypes. Low expression observed in reference dataset.

Summary

This gene is a member of the paired box (PAX) family of transcription factors. Members of this gene family typically contain a paired box domain, an octapeptide, and a paired-type homeodomain. These genes play critical roles during fetal development and Cancer growth. The specific function of the paired box 7 gene is unknown but speculated to involve tumor suppression since fusion of this gene with a forkhead domain family member has been associated with alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma. Three transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2008]
