High impact information on FKHL18

A combination of fluorescence in situ hybridization and somatic cell hybrids localizes freac-10 to the chromosomal region of 20q11.1-q11 [1].
Chromosome localization, sequence analysis, and expression pattern identify FKHL 18 as a novel human forkhead gene [1].

Evolutionary Origin

Comparative genomics reveals FOXS1 as likely remnant of Fox cluster duplication in the vertebrates . The gene has been identified in the genomes of birds and mammals [2]
