ALX3, Homeobox protein aristaless-like 3, Proline-rich transcription factor ALX3
This gene encodes a nuclear protein with a homeobox DNA-binding domain that functions as a transcriptional regulator involved in cell-type differentiation and development. Preferential methylation of this genes promoter is associated with advanced-stage neuroblastoma tumors. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008],function:Transcriptional regulator with a possible role in patterning of mesoderm during development.,similarity:Belongs to the paired homeobox family.,similarity:Contains 1 homeobox DNA-binding domain.,
