Description
The caudal type homeo box transcription factor 1 (CDX1) and CDX2 are candidates for directing intestinal development, differentiation, and maintenance of the intestinal phenotype. CDX1 is a 265aa protein with 85% identity to mouse Cdx1 (98% identity, including conservative aa changes). CDX1 and CDX2 expression is widely present in the human intestinal and colonic mucosae, but not in the gastric mucosa, suggesting a possible role in the terminal differentiation of the intestine. Decrease in human CDX1 and/or CDX2 expression is associated with colorectal tumorigenesis. On the other hand, increased CDX1 expression is associated with chronic atrophic gastritis
