About LHX2

Cytogenetic location: 9q33.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 9:124,011,768-124,033,301 (from NCBI)

This gene has 4 transcripts (splice variants), 222 orthologues and 20 paralogues. Biased expression in brain (RPKM 8.5), placenta (RPKM 1.0) and 2 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a protein belonging to a large protein family, members of which carry the LIM domain, a unique cysteine-rich zinc-binding domain. The encoded protein may function as a transcriptional regulator. The protein can recapitulate or rescue phenotypes in Drosophila caused by a related protein, suggesting conservation of function during evolution. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
