Disease susceptibility is associated with variations affecting the gene represented in this entry. Disease susceptibility is associated with variations affecting the gene represented in this entry. Susceptibility to development of chordomas is due to a T gene duplication. The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.

Function

TBXT_HUMAN Involved in the transcriptional regulation of genes required for mesoderm formation and differentiation. Binds to a palindromic site (called T site) and activates gene transcription when bound to such a site.[UniProtKB:P20293]
