| Gene summary | | The PAX genes, including PAX1, are a highly conserved family of developmental control genes that encode transcription factors and have been shown to play a role in pattern formation during embryogenesis in vertebrates (McGaughran et al., 2003 [PubMed 12774041]). See PAX7 (MIM 167410) for a discussion of paired box domain genes.[supplied by OMIM] |
