Leucine Twenty Homeobox (LEUTX)

LEUTX Belongs to the paired homeobox family.Contains 1 homeobox DNA-binding domain.A DNA-binding domain (DBD) is an independently folded protein domain that contains at least one motif that recognizes double- or single-stranded DNA. A DBD can recognize a specific DNA sequence (a recognition sequence) or have a general affinity to DNA.[1] Some DNA-binding domains may also include nucleic acids in their folded structure.One or more DNA-binding domains are often part of a larger protein consisting of additional domains with differing function. The additional domains often regulate the activity of the DNA-binding domain. The function of DNA binding is either structural or involving transcription regulation, with the two roles sometimes overlapping.
