Basic gene annotations are collected from Uniprot and displayed with links to original sources. A quick link to explore the genomic context with Uniprot Browser is available.

VAX2 - ventral anterior homeobox 2

Function

Transcription factor that may function in dorsoventral specification of the forebrain. Regulates the expression of Wnt signaling antagonists including the expression of a truncated TCF7L2 isoform that cannot bind CTNNB1 and acts therefore as a potent dominant-negative Wnt antagonist. Plays a crucial role in eye development and, in particular, in the specification of the ventral optic vesicle (By similarity). May be a regulator of axial polarization in the retina.

List of causal flows containing the regulator.

Causal Flows are statistically significant links between putative causal events (somatic mutations, copy number variations, chromosomal translocations, etc.) and the activity levels of regulators and regulons. In the causal flow, a mutation may causally activate or deactivate a downstream regulator which then might up- down-regulates a regulonthat contains genes with similar expression profiles and binding sites.
