Also known as: un; wt; hbs; Pax-1; hunchback; undulated
Summary: Enables DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II and sclerotome development. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including alpha-beta T cell differentiation; parathyroid gland development; and thymus development. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Predicted to be part of transcription regulator complex. Is expressed in several structures, including branchial pouch; central nervous system; embryo mesenchyme; foregut diverticulum; and musculoskeletal system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in branchiootorenal syndrome. Orthologous to human PAX1 (paired box 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 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.
