Show:Asymmetric Unit Biological Assembly Drag the structure with the mouse to rotate   Export Animated Image Function Paired box protein (PAX) are transcription factors which contain an N-terminal paired box domain and a paired-type homeodomain (60 amino acid helix-turn-helix). • PAX-6 contain two DNA-binding domains. It is a regulatory factor in eye and brain development. • PAX-5 is associated with B-cell differentiation. • PAX-3 regulates cell fate in C. elegans[1] • PAX-8 is associated with thyroid follicular cell development and expression of thyroid-specific genes[2]. Disease Mutations in PAX-6 are associated with aniridia, limbal stem cell deficiency and Peter’s anomaly[3]. Mutations in PAX-3 are associated with Waardenburg syndrome, craniofacial-deafness-hand syndrome and alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma[4]. Structural highlights . Water molecules are shown as red spheres. .
