Transcription
1327 bp mRNA
Proteins
Note
Paired mesoderm homeobox protein 2, Paired related homeobox protein 2

PRRX2 protein. HD = Homeodomain.
Description
253 amino acids, 27 kDa, contains an homeobox DNA-binding domain and an OAR domain.
Expression
In embryon, higher levels of transcripts in heart, kidney, lung and skeletal muscle; lower levels in spleen and thymus ; barely detecteble levels in brain and liver.
In adult, higher levels in heart, lung, placenta and pancreas ; moderate expression in kidney and skeletal muscle.
