Function

This gene encodes a member of a subfamily of non-clustered, diverged, antennapedia-like homeobox-containing transcription factor genes. The encoded protein may play a role in the molecular signaling network regulating somite development. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described.[6]

Interactions

MEOX1 has been shown to interact with PAX1[7] and PAX3.[7]
