GlossaryDlx Gene Family

group of genes crucial for tissue and organ development

The Dlx Gene Family, also known as the Distal-less Homeobox Gene Family, consists of a group of genes that play a crucial role in the development of various tissues and organs, including the formation of limbs and craniofacial structures. These genes are essential for proper embryonic development and are involved in the regulation of cell differentiation and tissue patterning.
