About Dlx5

Summary

Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; HMG box domain binding activity; and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in positive regulation of osteoblast differentiation. Predicted to be located in chromatin; cytoplasm; and nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in split hand-foot malformation 1 and split hand-foot malformation 1 with sensorineural hearing loss. Orthologous to human DLX5 (distal-less homeobox 5).
