- Description
- Predicted to have sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in enteric nervous system development; neural crest cell migration; and xanthophore differentiation. Localizes to nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Waardenburg syndrome type 3; Waardenburg's syndrome; alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma; and craniofacial-deafness-hand syndrome. Is expressed in several structures, including muscle; nervous system; neural crest; neural tube; and paraxial mesoderm. Orthologous to human PAX3 (paired box 3).
