Function
- may be involved in gene regulation within neural lineage cells potentially by direct DNA binding or by binding to other transcription factors
Structure
contains 2 LIM Zn+2-binding domains
Compartment
Expression
- expressed mainly in the central nervous system
- low level of expression in other tissues including thymus
Pathology
- chromosomal translocation t(11;14)(p15;q11) involving LMO1 with TCRD may be a cause of a form of T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL)
