Entrez ID 54729
Gene name NK1 homeobox 1
Gene symbol NKX1-1
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
HSPX153NKX-1.1SAX2
Chromosome 4
Chromosome location 4p16.3
Summary This gene encodes a transcription factor that belongs to NKX family of homeodomain-containing proteins which are critical regulators of organ development. In mice, the orthologous gene is expressed predominantly in the brainstem, in the vicinity of seroto
