Entrez Gene summary for PITX1 Gene:

This gene encodes a member of the RIEG/PITX homeobox family, which is in the bicoid class of homeodomain proteins.

Members of this family are involved in organ development and left-right asymmetry. This protein acts as a

transcriptional regulator involved in basal and hormone-regulated activity of prolactin. (provided by RefSeq, Jul

2008)

GeneCards Summary for PITX1 Gene:

PITX1 (paired-like homeodomain 1) is a protein-coding gene. Diseases associated with PITX1 include clubfoot, congenital, with or without deficiency of long bones and/or mirror-image polydactyly, and liebenberg syndrome. GO annotations related to this gene include protein binding transcription factor activity and sequence-specific DNA binding transcription factor activity. An important paralog of this gene is GSC.

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: PITX1_HUMAN, P78337

Function: May play a role in the development of anterior structures, and in particular, the brain and facies and

in specifying the identity or structure of hindlimb

Clubfoot, congenital, with or without deficiency of long bones and/or mirror-image polydactyly (CCF)

[MIM:119800]: A congenital limb deformity defined as fixation of the foot in cavus, adductus, varus, and equinus

(i.e., inclined inwards, axially rotated outwards, and pointing downwards) with concomitant soft tissue

abnormalities. Clubfoot may occur in isolation or as part of a syndrome. Some patients present tibial hemimelia,

bilateral patellar hypoplasia, and preaxial mirror-image polydactyly. Note=The disease is caused by mutations

affecting the gene represented in this entry

Liebenberg syndrome (LBNBG) [MIM:186550]: An upper limb-malformation syndrome characterized by the

combination of dysplastic elbow joints and the fusion of wrist bones with consequent radial deviation. Note=The

gene represented in this entry is involved in disease pathogenesis. A chromosomal aberration involving the PITX1

locus results in LBNBG. Translocation t(5;18)(q31.1;q12.3). Additionally, two chromosome 5 deletions located 5'of

PITX1 have been found in LBNBG patients. These structural variations cause altered expression of PITX1 in the

forelimb via the activation of ectopic enhancers (PubMed:23022097)
