Lmx1a - LIM homeobox transcription factor 1 alpha Gene

Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II transcription regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in brain development. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal dominant nonsyndromic deafness 7. Orthologous to human LMX1A (LIM homeobox transcription factor 1 alpha). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
