Background
This locus encodes a member of the forked-head transcription factor family. The encoded protein, which functions as a repressor, may play a role in brain development. Mutations at this locus have been associated with Rett syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2012],
Function
caution:PubMed:7959731 claims that there are 3 different FOXG1 proteins, FOXG1A, FOXG1B, and FOXG1C. It was latter found that there is only one gene and the differences between these three may be sequencing errors since the protein is coded in a unique exon.,function:Transcription repression factor which plays an important role in the establishment of the regional subdivision of the developing brain and in the development of the telencephalon.,similarity:Contains 1 fork-head DNA-binding domain.,subunit:Interacts with KDM5B.,tissue specificity:Expression is restricted to the neurons of the developing telencephalon.,
