FOXC1 forkhead box C1

Gene ID: 2296, updated on 7-Apr-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: ARA; IGDA; IHG1; ASGD3; FKHL7; IRID1; RIEG3; FREAC3; FREAC-3

Summary

This gene belongs to the forkhead family of transcription factors which is characterized by a distinct DNA-binding forkhead domain. The specific function of this gene has not yet been determined; however, it has been shown to play a role in the regulation of embryonic and ocular development. Mutations in this gene cause various glaucoma phenotypes including primary congenital glaucoma, autosomal dominant iridogoniodysgenesis anomaly, and Axenfeld-Rieger anomaly.
