Gene

Nkx2-5

Species
Mus musculus
Symbol
Nkx2-5
Name
NK2 homeobox 5
Synonyms
  • cardiac specific homeobox
  • Csx
Biotype
protein coding gene
Automated Description
Enables several functions, including DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity; and protein homodimerization activity. Involved in several processes, including cardiac muscle tissue development; regulation of heart contraction; and regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including circulatory system development; proepicardium development; and regulation of DNA-templated transcription. Located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Part of transcription regulator complex. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; branchial arch; heart; and hemolymphoid system. Used to study atrial heart septal defect 7; congenital heart disease; hypoplastic left heart syndrome; and tetralogy of Fallot. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in aortic valve disease 2; atrioventricular block; congenital heart disease (multiple); and congenital nongoitrous hypothyroidism 5. Orthologous to human NKX2-5 (NK2 homeobox 5).
MGI Description
PHENOTYPE: Homozygous mutants show cardiac development arrest after looping, growth retardation, hematopoiesis and angiogenesis defects in yolk sac, and die at embryonic day 9-10. Heterozygotes also show cardiac developmental defects. [provided by MGI curators]
