    GlossaryDlx3

    gene crucial for hair follicle and skin development

    Dlx3 is a gene that plays a crucial role in the development and differentiation of hair follicles, skin, and teeth. It is part of the Distal-less homeobox (Dlx) family of transcription factors, which are essential for regulating the expression of other genes during embryonic development. Mutations in Dlx3 have been linked to conditions such as Tricho-Dento-Osseous (TDO) syndrome, which affects hair, teeth, and bone development.
