Gene

Nfix

Species
Mus musculus
Symbol
Nfix
Name
nuclear factor I/X
Synonyms
  • Nf1x
Biotype
protein coding gene
Automated Description
Enables DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity; and chromatin binding activity. Involved in several processes, including learning or memory; nervous system development; and regulation of DNA-templated transcription. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including exit from mitosis; myeloid leukocyte differentiation; and nervous system development. Is active in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; genitourinary system; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Used to study Scheuermann's disease and Sotos syndrome 2. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Marshall-Smith syndrome and Sotos syndrome 2. Orthologous to human NFIX (nuclear factor I X).
MGI Description
PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a mutation in this gene display postnatal lethality, hydrocephalus, partial agenesis of the corpus callosum, deformation of the spine due to delayed vertebral body ossification, degeneration of intervertebral disks, decreased mineralization and impaired endochondral ossification.
