Information
has glosseng: TBX1 (T-box 1) is a human gene that codes for the protein called T-box 1. Genes in the T-box family play important roles in the formation of tissues and organs during embryonic development. To carry out these roles, proteins made by this gene family bind to specific areas of DNA. By attaching to critical regions near genes, the proteins help control the activity of those genes. T-box proteins are called transcription factors on the basis of this action.
