NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
The protein encoded by this gene is a homeobox protein that is similar to the Drosophila 'sine oculis' gene product. This gene is found in a cluster of related genes on chromosome 14 and is thought to be involved in limb development. Defects in this gene are a cause of autosomal dominant deafness type 23 (DFNA23) and branchiootic syndrome type 3 (BOS3). [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Uniprot Description
SIX1: May be involved in limb tendon and ligament development. Defects in SIX1 are the cause of deafness autosomal dominant type 23 (DFNA23). A form of non-syndromic deafness characterized by prelingual, bilateral, symmetric hearing loss with a conductive component present in some but not all patients. Defects in SIX1 are the cause of branchiootic syndrome type 3 (BOS3). BOS3 is a syndrome characterized by usually bilateral branchial cleft fistulas or cysts, sensorineural and/or conductive hearing loss, pre-auricular pits, and structural defects of the outer, middle or inner ear. Otic defects include malformed and hypoplastic pinnae, a narrowed external ear canal, bulbous internal auditory canal, stapes fixation, malformed and hypoplastic cochlea. Branchial and otic anomalies are as those seen in individuals with the branchiootorenal syndrome. However, renal anomalies are absent in branchiootic syndrome patients. Defects in SIX1 could be a cause of branchiootorenal syndrome (BOR). BOR is an autosomal dominant disorder manifested by various combinations of preauricular pits, branchial fistulae or cysts, lacrimal duct stenosis, hearing loss, structural defects of the outer, middle, or inner ear, and renal dysplasia. Associated defects include asthenic habitus, long narrow facies, constricted palate, deep overbite, and myopia. Hearing loss may be due to mondini type cochlear defect and stapes fixation. Penetrance of BOR syndrome is high, although expressivity can be extremely variable. Belongs to the SIX/Sine oculis homeobox family.

Product Notes
The SIX1 six1 (Catalog #AAA9230287) is a Blocking Peptide and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "SIX1, Blocking Peptide" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
