gene: tbx-9 [Browse genome (BioProject PRJNA13758)] [Search on AGR]
Caenorhabditis elegans Enables RNA polymerase II transcription regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in embryonic body morphogenesis. Located in nucleus. Expressed in several structures, including ABarpa; Eal; Ear; Epl; and Epr. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including Holt-Oram syndrome; asthma, nasal polyps, and aspirin intolerance; and malaria. Is an ortholog of several human genes including EOMES (eomesodermin); TBR1 (T-box brain transcription factor 1); and TBX5 (T-box transcription factor 5).
