Target Information

This gene encodes a paired-like homeodomain transcription factor expressed in the mesenchyme of developing bones, limbs, hair, teeth, and mammary tissue.
Mutations in this gene cause parietal foramina 2 (PFM2), an autosomal dominant disease characterized by deficient ossification of the parietal bones.
Mutations also cause a form of frontonasal dysplasia with alopecia and hypogonadism, suggesting a role in craniofacial development, mesenchymal-epithelial communication, and hair follicle development.
Deletion of a segment of chromosome 11 containing this gene, del(11)(p11p12), causes Potocki-Shaffer syndrome (PSS), characterized by craniofacial anomalies, mental retardation, multiple exostoses, and genital abnormalities in males.
In mouse, this gene utilizes dual translation initiation sites located 16 codons apart.
