CRX

Gene
CRX
Protein
Cone-rod homeobox protein
Organism
Bos taurus
Length
299 amino acids
Function
Transcription factor that binds and transactivates the sequence 5'-TAATC[CA]-3' which is found upstream of several photoreceptor-specific genes, including the opsin genes. Acts synergistically with other transcription factors, such as NRL, RORB and RAX, to regulate photoreceptor cell-specific gene transcription. Essential for the maintenance of mammalian photoreceptors (By similarity).
Similarity
Belongs to the paired homeobox family.
