High impact information on Bix1

  • Rather, Bix3 lacks a C-terminal motif, which, in Bix1, acts in cis to inhibit apoptosis [1].
  • Mis-expression of low levels of Bix1 causes formation of ventral mesoderm, while high levels induce endodermal differentiation [2].
  • Bix1, a direct target of Xenopus T-box genes, causes formation of ventral mesoderm and endoderm [2].
