Summary
This gene encodes a transcription factor that belongs to NKX family of homeodomain-containing proteins which are critical regulators of organ development. In mice, the orthologous gene is expressed predominantly in the brainstem, in the vicinity of serotonergic neurons, and is required for the coordinated crosstalk of factors involved in the maintenance of energy homeostasis. Mice with a knockout of the orthologous gene lack subcutaneous fat and intra-abdominal epididymal and mesenteric white adipose tissue two weeks after birth, and die within three weeks after birth.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
