| 10591 | Foxg1 | forkhead box G1 | Enables sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including neuron differentiation; positive regulation of neuroblast proliferation; and regulation of neuron differentiation. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; early embryo; embryo ectoderm; gonad; and sensory organ. Used to study Rett syndrome. Orthologous to human FOXG1 (forkhead box G1).

| 737514 | FOXG1 | forkhead box G1 | This locus encodes a member of the fork-head transcription factor family. The encoded protein, which functions as a transcriptional repressor, is highly expressed in neural tissues during brain development. Mutations at this locus have been associated with Rett syndrome and a diverse spectrum of neu rodevelopmental disorders defined as part of the FOXG1 syndrome. This gene is disregulated in many types of cancer and is the target of multiple microRNAs that regulate the proliferation of tumor cells.
