Homo sapiens

Also known as AAT11; ASGD2; FKHL12; FREAC8; CTRCT34

Gene ID: 2301 | Gene type: protein coding

About FOXE3

Cytogenetic location: 1p33 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 1:47,416,285-47,418,052 (from NCBI)

This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 46 orthologues, 42 paralogues and is associated with 10 phenotypes.

Summary

This intronless gene belongs to the forkhead family of transcription factors, which is characterized by a distinct forkhead domain. The protein encoded functions as a lens-specific transcription factor and plays an important role in vertebrate lens formation. Mutations in this gene are associated with anterior segment mesenchymal dysgenesis and congenital primary aphakia. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2009]
