Paired Box Transcription Factors

More information in Books or onNLM PubMed
Definition: A family of transcription factors that control EMBRYONIC DEVELOPMENT within a variety of cell lineages. They are characterized by a highly conserved paired DNA-binding domain that was first identified in DROSOPHILA segmentation genes.     
Examples B-Cell-Specific Activator Protein; PAX2 Transcription Factor; PAX7 Transcription Factor; PAX9 Transcription Factor
Other names Transcription Factors, Pax; Pax Transcription Factors
