SEA-1

WormBase ID: WBGene00004750

WormBase description: Is an ortholog of several human genes including TBX19 (T-box transcription factor 19); TBX22 (T-box transcription factor 22); and TBX6 (T-box transcription factor 6). Exhibits RNA polymerase II regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Is involved in dosage compensation by hypoactivation of X chromosome; positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II; and sex determination. Localizes to nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including coelomocyte; head muscle; intestine; neurons; and ventral nerve cord. Human ortholog(s) of this gene are implicated in several diseases, including X-linked cleft palate with or without ankyloglossia; adrenocorticotropic hormone deficiency; and dysostosis (multiple).
