FOXD1

protein-coding

forkhead box D1, the group of Forkhead boxes

Gene summary

This gene belongs to the forkhead family of transcription factors which are characterized by a distinct forkhead domain. Studies of the orthologous mouse protein indicate that it functions in kidney development by promoting nephron progenitor differentiation, and it also functions in the development of the retina and optic chiasm. It may also regulate inflammatory reactions and prevent autoimmunity. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2014]

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type

Statistics based on transcript NM_004472.3. Only rare variants are included.

We include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, MANE Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equal to 1. Click a count to filter the variants table below.

Slight differences between displayed counts and ClinVar may occur due to a different transcript/consequence chosen by our variant effect predictor, or because we classify Benign/Likely benign as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic as Likely pathogenic.

Function
FUNCTION: Transcription factor involved in regulation of gene expression in a variety of processes, including formation of positional identity in the developing retina, regionalization of the optic chiasm, morphogenesis of the kidney, and neuralization of ectodermal cells (By similarity). Involved in transcriptional activation of PGF and C3 genes (PubMed:27805902). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q61345, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27805902}.;
