GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
HMX2 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
NKX5-2
Description
H6 family homeobox 2 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the NKL homeobox family of transcription factors. Members in this family are of ancient origin and play an important role in organ development during embryogenesis. A related mouse protein plays a role in patterning of inner ear structures. In humans, variations in a region containing this gene have been associated with inner ear malformations, vestibular dysfunction, and hearing loss. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2012]
