DLX5 (NP_005212, 1 a.a. ~ 110 a.a) partial recombinant protein with GST tag. MW of the GST tag alone is 26 KDa.
Alternative Names:
distal-less homeo box 5,homeobox protein DLX-5,SHFM1,SHFM1D,split hand/foot malformation type 1 with sensorineural hearing loss.
This gene encodes a member of a homeobox transcription factor gene family similiar to the Drosophila distal-less gene. The encoded protein may play a role in bone development and fracture healing. Mutation in this gene, which is located in a tail-to-tail configuration with another member of the family on the long arm of chromosome 7, may be associated with split-hand/split-foot malformation.
