NK3 homeobox 2 (NKX3-2)
- Target
- NKX3-2
- Molecular classification
- Transcription factor, Homeobox protein
01
Overview
NK3 homeobox 2 (NKX3-2) is a homeobox-containing transcription factor that acts as a negative regulator of chondrocyte maturation and plays an important role in embryo development, particularly in the formation of the distal stomach and skeletal system. It regulates gene expression involved in chondrogenesis and tissue-specific differentiation, and disruption of its function is associated with skeletal development disorders[1][3][5].
