ID:SEBOX_MOUSE DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Homeobox protein SEBOX; AltName: Full=Homeobox OG-9; AltName: Full=Skin-, embryo-, brain- and oocyte-specific homeobox; FUNCTION: Probable transcription factor involved in the control of specification of mesoderm and endoderm (By similarity). SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus (By similarity). TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed in brain, skin, ovary and liver. Also expressed in maturing oocytes, eggs, zygotes and 2-cell embryos, but not 4-cell embryos. DEVELOPMENTAL STAGE: Expressed in embryos from day 7. Expression is low in 12 day embryos and higher in 18 and 19 day embryos. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the paired homeobox family. SIMILARITY: Contains 1 homeobox DNA-binding domain.

Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
