    Summary
    This gene encodes a member of the bicoid sub-family of homeodomain-containing transcription factors. The encoded protein acts as a transcription factor and may play a role in brain and sensory organ development. Two transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene.

    What's a GeneRIF?
    1. Authors found that the function of DMBX1 was dependent on p21 (CDKN1A), a key regulator of G1/S cell cycle progression. Co-IP assay revealed that DMBX1 directly bound to another homeobox transcription factor, OTX2. ChIP and luciferase reporter assay confirmed that OTX2 directly interacted with the promoter region of p21 to enhance its transcription, and DMBX1 repressed OTX2-mediated transcription of p21.

    RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

    These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

    These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
