Gene information for MEIS1 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID4211
Official gene symbolMEIS1
Full nameMeis homeobox 1
Aliases,MGC43380,
Gene summaryHomeobox genes, of which the most well-characterized category is represented by the HOX genes, play a crucial role in normal development. In addition, several homeoproteins are involved in neoplasia. This gene encodes a homeobox protein belonging to the TALE ('three amino acid loop extension') family of homeodomain-containing proteins.
