T-box transcription factor TBX5 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TBX5 gene.[1][2][3]

This gene is a member of a phylogenetically conserved family of genes that share a common DNA-binding domain, the T-box. T-box genes encode transcription factors involved in the regulation of developmental processes.

This gene is closely linked to related family member T-box 3 (ulnar mammary syndrome) on human chromosome 12.

The encoded protein may play a role in heart development and specification of limb identity. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Holt-Oram syndrome, a developmental disorder affecting the heart and upper limbs. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene.[3]

Interactions

TBX5 (gene) has been shown to interact with GATA4[4] and NKX2-5.[4][5]
