T-box family members in Homo sapiens

T subfamily
Members Notes Linked diseases
T Crystal structure solved
TBX19
TBX1 subfamily
Members Notes Linked diseases
TBX1 Crystal structure solved (4a04) DiGeorge syndrome
TBX10
TBX15 Cousin syndrome
TBX18
TBX20
TBX22 Truncated T-box domain predicted not to bind DNA Cleft palate with ankyloglossia
TBX2 subfamily
Members Notes Linked diseases
TBX2 Mutation of Arg122 destroys DNA binding. Acts as a repressor. TRP-1 promoter is a possible binding site. Amplified in certain types of breast cancer.
TBX3 Crystal structure solved Ulnar-mammary syndrome
TBX4 Small patella syndrome
TBX5 Crystal structure solved Holt-Oram syndrome
TBX6 subfamily
Members Notes Linked diseases
TBX6
MGA Also contains leucine zipper domain
