Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 84839
Gene name Retina and anterior neural fold homeobox 2
Gene symbol RAX2
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
ARMD6CORD11QRXRAXL1RP95
Chromosome 19
Chromosome location 19p13.3
Summary This gene encodes a homeodomain-containing protein that plays a role in eye development. Mutation of this gene causes age-related macular degeneration type 6, an eye disorder resulting in accumulations of protein and lipid beneath the retinal pigment epit
