NKX3-1

Chr 8

NK3 homeobox 1

Also known as: BAPX2, NKX3, NKX3.1, NKX3A

This gene encodes a homeobox-containing transcription factor. This transcription factor functions as a negative regulator of epithelial cell growth in prostate tissue. Aberrant expression of this gene is associated with prostate tumor progression. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants of this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2012]
