prospero homeobox 1 |
| Gene Summary |
Enables DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in several processes, including camera-type eye morphogenesis; circulatory system development; and positive regulation of cell differentiation. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including epithelial cell differentiation; hepatocyte cell migration; and regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; cardiovascular system; sensory organ; and skin. Used to study dilated cardiomyopathy and obesity. Orthologous to human PROX1 (prospero homeobox 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025] |
