COMMENT     REVIEWED REFSEQ: This record has been curated by NCBI staff. The
            reference sequence was derived from AC006349.3 and AC005519.4.
            This sequence is a reference standard in the RefSeqGene project.
            On Aug 16, 2007 this sequence version replaced gi:34365782.
            
            Summary: This gene encodes a homeobox protein originally described
            as a retina-specific transcription factor. Mutations in this gene
            are associated with microphthalmia, cataracts and iris
            abnormalities. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009].
            
            Sequence Note: The RefSeq transcript and protein were derived from
            genomic sequence to make the sequence consistent with the reference
            genome assembly. The genomic coordinates used for the transcript
            record were based on alignments.
            
            Publication Note:  This RefSeq record includes a subset of the
            publications that are available for this gene. Please see the Gene
            record to access additional publications.
