About Crx

Summary

Enables DNA binding activity. Involved in circadian rhythm and positive regulation of photoreceptor cell differentiation. Located in nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Leber congenital amaurosis 7 and cone-rod dystrophy 2. Orthologous to human CRX (cone-rod homeobox). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
