Description
Paired box gene 8, also known as PAX8, is a protein which in humans is encoded by the PAX8 gene, a member of the paired box (PAX) family of transcription factors. The PAX8 nuclear protein is involved in thyroid follicular cell development and expression of thyroid-specific genes. It also functions in very early stages of kidney organogenesis. Mutations in the PAX8 gene have been associated with thyroid dysgenesis, thyroid follicular carcinomas and atypical follicular thyroid adenomas.
