DLX1
Homeobox protein DLX-1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the DLX1 gene.[5][6]
Function
This gene encodes a member of a homeobox transcription factor gene family similar to the Drosophila distal-less gene. The encoded protein is localized to the nucleus where it may function as a transcriptional regulator of signals from multiple TGF-β superfamily members. The encoded protein may play a role in the control of craniofacial patterning and the differentiation and survival of inhibitory neurons in the forebrain. This gene is located in a tail-to-tail configuration with another member of the family on the long arm of chromosome 2. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described.[6]
gollark: Ah, I see.
gollark: What, sugary food?
gollark: Er. No.
gollark: So, all mages are horribly addicted to sugary foods.
gollark: Oh yes, right, sugar exists.
