gene: tbx-40 [Browse genome (BioProject PRJNA13758)] [Search on AGR]
Caenorhabditis elegans Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in cell fate specification and regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Expressed in phasmid neurons. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Abruzzo-Erickson syndrome; X-linked cleft palate with or without ankyloglossia; and bone disease (multiple). Is an ortholog of several human genes including TBX15 (T-box transcription factor 15); TBX4 (T-box transcription factor 4); and TBX6 (T-box transcription factor 6).
