Background
|
This gene encodes a member of the Bar subclass of homeobox transcription factors. Studies of the mouse and chick homolog suggest the encoded protein may play a role in developing teeth and craniofacial mesenchyme of neural crest origin. The protein may also be associated with differentiation of stomach epithelia.
Alias Symbols: BARX1
Protein Interaction Partner: HOXD9, CYP17A1, UBC, RPS6KA3, MAPK6,
