Source: NCBI Gene (ID 16874)
Symbol: Lhx6
Full name: LIM homeobox protein 6
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: VALIDATED
Organism: Mus musculus
Also known as: Lhx6.1
Summary: Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II transcription regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Acts upstream of or within cell maturation and forebrain development. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; branchial arch; forebrain; genitourinary system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human LHX6 (LIM homeobox 6).
