NOBOX oogenesis homeobox
Alias
OG-2 | OG2 | OG2X | POF5 | TCAG_12042
This homeobox gene encodes a transcription factor that is thought to play a role in oogenesis. In mice, it is essential for folliculogenesis and regulation of oocyte-specific genes. Defects in this gene result in premature ovarian failure type 5.[provided by RefSeq, May 2011].
