About HLX

Enables sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in signal transduction. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including embryonic digestive tract morphogenesis; enteric nervous system development; and regulation of T-helper cell differentiation. Predicted to be located in chromatin. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]
