Gene information for MEOX2 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID4223
Official gene symbolMEOX2
Full namemesenchyme homeobox 2
Aliases,GAX,MOX2,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a member of a subfamily of non-clustered, diverged, antennapedia-like homeobox-containing genes. The encoded protein may play a role in the regulation of vertebrate limb myogenesis. Mutations in the related mouse protein may be associated with craniofacial and/or skeletal abnormalities, in addition to neurovascular dysfunction observed in Alzheimer's disease.
