Dorsal root ganglia homeobox protein (DRGX)

Target
DRGX
Molecular classification
Transcription factor, DNA-binding protein
01

Overview

Dorsal root ganglia homeobox protein (DRGX) is a transcription factor that binds sequence-specific double-stranded DNA and regulates gene expression essential for the development and correct projection of nociceptive sensory neurons in the dorsal horn of the spinal cord, contributing to normal pain perception and sensory nervous system development. It is not currently considered a therapeutic target, with no known direct drug interactions or use as a biomarker. Mutations or deletions involving DRGX may be associated with neurodevelopmental and myasthenic syndromes.
