Isx - intestine specific homeobox Gene

Also Known as Pix-1; 9130012O13Rik

Species: Mus musculus

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 71597

Summary

Enables DNA-binding transcription repressor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Acts upstream of or within negative regulation of intestinal absorption; regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II; and regulation of vitamin A metabolic process. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Is expressed in genitourinary system; midgut; and thymus. Orthologous to human ISX (intestine specific homeobox).
