Description
Description
Paired-like (PRD-like) homeobox transcription factors are sequence-specific DNA binding proteins that regulate transcription. PRD-like transcription factors lack a paired domain but possess a homeodomain characteristic of the paired homeobox transcription factors. Some members also possess an Engrailed Homology 1 (EH1) and/or an OAR motif near the C-terminus. (Adapted from FBrf0232555 and FBrf0106517).
