MSX2 encodes a member of the muscle segment homeobox gene family. The encoded protein is a transcriptional repressor whose normal activity may establish a balance between survival and apoptosis of neural crest-derived cells required for proper craniofacial morphogenesis. The encoded protein may also have a role in promoting cell growth under certain conditions and may be an important target for the RAS signaling pathways. Mutations in MSX2 are associated with parietal foramina 1 and craniosynostosis type 2.蛋白別名為：MSX2; HOX8; Homeobox protein MSX-2; Homeobox protein Hox-8;基因ID為：4488；蛋白質ID:P35548
