NCIt definition : Human LHX1 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 17q12 and is approximately
6 kb in length. This allele, which encodes LIM/homeobox 1 protein Lhx1, may play a
role in the regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II and the development of
lymphoid and neural cells.;
NCIt note : The LHX1 gene product is a LIM motif containing protein kinase and a putative transcription
factor. This gene product is expressed in brain, thymus and tonsillar tissue (GeneCards).;
