Gene ID: 10660, updated on 2-Nov-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: HPX6; CCHS3; HPX-6; LBX1H; homeobox

Summary

This gene and the orthologous mouse gene were found by their homology to the Drosophila lady bird early and late homeobox genes. In the mouse, this gene is a key regulator of muscle precursor cell migration and is required for the acquisition of dorsal identities of forelimb muscles. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
