Description
Product Characteristics: The TFact™ DLX5 DNA-Binding ELISA Kit detects endogenous levels of total DLX5 protein.
Target Information: This gene encodes a member of a homeobox transcription factor gene family similiar to the Drosophila distal-less gene. The encoded protein may play a role in bone development and fracture healing. Mutation in this gene, which is located in a tail-to-tail configuration with another member of the family on the long arm of chromosome 7, may be associated with split-hand/split-foot malformation.
