Function
FUNCTION: Transcriptional repressor involved in organogenesis. {ECO:0000250}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Townes-Brocks syndrome 1 (TBS1) [MIM:107480]: A form of Townes-Brocks syndrome, a rare autosomal dominant disease characterized by the triad of imperforate anus, dysplastic ears, and thumb malformations. Minor features of the condition include hearing loss, foot malformations, renal impairment with or without renal malformations, genitourinary malformations, and congenital heart disease. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10533063, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9425907, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9973281}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry. Some individuals with SALL1 mutations manifest a phenotype overlapping with TBS1 and bronchio-oto-renal syndrome. Clinical features include dysplastic ears, hypoplastic kidneys with impaired renal function, gastroesophageal reflux, hypermetropia, hypospadias, and mild developmental delay. Affected individuals lack the characteristic anal or hand malformations of TBS1. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10928856}.;
