Background
The SIX proteins (sine oculis) are a family of homeodomain transcription factors that share a conserved DNA binding domain. Six members (Six1-Six6) of the Six gene family have been identified in mice and humans. SIX2, containing one homeobox DNA-binding domain, is highly expressed in fetal tissues but expression is limited in adult tissues. SIX2 may be involved in limb tendon and ligament development[PMID:21420949]. It has been previously shown that SIX2 is expressed in developing mesenchymal tissue including head and urogenital system at the time of overt midfacial and renal differentiation[PMID: 22282599]. |
