Summary: Enables DNA-binding transcription factor activity and HMG box domain binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including endocrine system development; regionalization; and skeletal system development. Predicted to be located in nucleoplasm. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including branchial arch; embryo mesenchyme; genitourinary system; gut; and nervous system. Used to study DiGeorge syndrome. Orthologous to human HOXA3 (homeobox A3). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]

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.
