About This Section

Entrez Gene summary for PAX8:
This gene encodes a member of the paired box (PAX) family of transcription factors. Members of this gene family
typically encode proteins that contain a paired box domain, an octapeptide, and a paired-type homeodomain. This
nuclear protein is involved in thyroid follicular cell development and expression of thyroid-specific genes. Mutations
in this gene have been associated with thyroid dysgenesis, thyroid follicular carcinomas and atypical follicular
thyroid adenomas. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described. (provided
by RefSeq, Mar 2010)

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: PAX8_HUMAN, Q06710
Function: Transcription factor for the thyroid-specific expression of the genes exclusively expressed in the thyroid
cell type, maintaining the functional differentiation of such cells

  • Defects in PAX8 are the cause of congenital hypothyroidism non-goitrous type 2 (CHNG2) [MIM:218700]. CHNG2 is
  • a disease characterized by thyroid dysgenesis, the most frequent cause of congenital hypothyroidism, accounting for
    85% of case. The thyroid gland can be completely absent (athyreosis), ectopically located and/or severely hypoplastic.
    Ectopic thyroid gland is the most frequent malformation, with thyroid tissue being found most often at the base of the
    tongue
