MKX
This article is about the protein. For the Mortal Kombat video game, see Mortal Kombat X. For other uses, see MKX (disambiguation).
Homeobox protein Mohawk, also known as iroquois homeobox protein-like 1, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MKX (mohawk homeobox) gene.[1]
Function
MKX is a member of an Iroquois (IRX) family-related class of 'three-amino acid loop extension' (TALE) atypical homeobox proteins characterized by 3 additional amino acids in the loop region between helix I and helix II of the homeodomain.[1][2]
