DPRX: Proteins and Enzymes

Homeobox genes encode DNA-binding proteins, many of which are thought to be involved in early embryonic development.Homeobox genes encode a DNA-binding domain of 60 to 63 amino acids referred to as the homeodomain. This gene is amember of the DPRX homeobox gene family. Evidence of mRNA expression has not yet been found for this gene. Multiple,related processed pseudogenes have been found which are thought to reflect expression of this gene in the germ line orembryonic cells. (provided by RefSeq)
