MLS-1

WormBase ID: WBGene00003376

WormBase description: Is an ortholog of human TBX1 (T-box transcription factor 1). Is predicted to have DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; RNA polymerase II activating transcription factor binding activity; and RNA polymerase II regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Is involved in muscle cell fate specification and post-embryonic development. Localizes to nucleus. Is expressed in anal depressor muscle and egg-laying apparatus. Is used to study chromosome 22q11.2 deletion syndrome, distal. Human ortholog(s) of this gene are implicated in several diseases, including CAKUT2; DiGeorge syndrome; and congenital heart disease (multiple).
