Gene Type: protein_coding_gene
Location: Chr: 7 Mapping Details/Browsers
Description: Predicted to have sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in embryonic skeletal joint development and regulation of chondrocyte differentiation. Predicted to localize to the nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; head; hindbrain neural plate; mesoderm; and midbrain neural keel. Orthologous to human IRX5 (iroquois homeobox 5).
