Background
This gene encodes a nuclear protein, which contains a homeobox domain and is a transcription factor. Mutations in this gene result in Currarino syndrome, an autosomic dominant congenital malformation. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2009],
Function
disease:Defects in MNX1 are a cause of Currarino syndrome [MIM:176450]. The triad of a presacral tumor, sacral agenesis and anorectal malformation constitutes the Currarino syndrome which is caused by dorsal-ventral patterning defects during embryonic development. The syndrome occurs in the majority of patients as an autosomal dominant trait.,function:Putative transcription factor involved in pancreas development and function.,similarity:Contains 1 homeobox DNA-binding domain.,tissue specificity:Expressed in lymphoid and pancreatic tissues.,
