Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 3166
Gene name H6 family homeobox 1
Gene symbol HMX1
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
H6NKX5-3
Chromosome 4
Chromosome location 4p16.1
Summary This gene encodes a transcription factor that belongs to the H6 family of homeobox proteins. This protein can bind a 5`-CAAG-3` core DNA sequence, and it is involved in the development of craniofacial structures. Mutations in this gene cause oculoauricula
