FOXI1 forkhead box I1

Gene ID: 2299, updated on 8-Jul-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: HFH3; FKH10; HFH-3; FKHL10; FREAC6; FREAC-6

Summary

This gene belongs to the forkhead family of transcription factors, which is characterized by a distinct forkhead domain. This gene may play an important role in the development of the cochlea and vestibulum, as well as in embryogenesis. The encoded protein has been found to be required for the transcription of four subunits of a proton pump found in the inner ear, the kidney, and the epididymis. Mutations in this gene have been associated with deafness, autosomal recessive 4. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2017]
