Entrez Gene summary for PHOX2B Gene:

The DNA-associated protein encoded by this gene is a member of the paired family of homeobox proteins localized to

the nucleus. The protein functions as a transcription factor involved in the development of several major

noradrenergic neuron populations and the determination of neurotransmitter phenotype. The gene product is linked

to enhancement of second messenger-mediated activation of the dopamine beta-hydroylase, c-fos promoters and

several enhancers, including cyclic amp-response element and serum-response element. (provided by RefSeq, Jul

2008)

GeneCards Summary for PHOX2B Gene:

PHOX2B (paired-like homeobox 2b) is a protein-coding gene. Diseases associated with PHOX2B include phox2b-related neuroblastoma, susceptibility, and adrenal neuroblastoma. GO annotations related to this gene include RNA polymerase II regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding and sequence-specific DNA binding transcription factor activity. An important paralog of this gene is ALX1.

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: PHX2B_HUMAN, Q99453

Function: Involved in the development of several major noradrenergic neuron populations, including the locus

coeruleus. Transcription factor which could determine a neurotransmitter phenotype in vertebrates. Enhances

second-messenger-mediated activation of the dopamine beta-hydrolase and c-fos promoters, and of several enhancers

including cAMP-response element and serum-response element

Congenital central hypoventilation syndrome (CCHS) [MIM:209880]: Rare disorder characterized by abnormal

control of respiration in the absence of neuromuscular or lung disease, or an identifiable brain stem lesion. A

deficiency in autonomic control of respiration results in inadequate or negligible ventilatory and arousal

responses to hypercapnia and hypoxemia. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in

this entry

Neuroblastoma 2 (NBLST2) [MIM:613013]: A common neoplasm of early childhood arising from embryonic cells

that form the primitive neural crest and give rise to the adrenal medulla and the sympathetic nervous system.

Note=Disease susceptibility is associated with variations affecting the gene represented in this entry
