FOXF1

A gene on chromosome 16q24 that encodes a member of the forkhead family of transcription factors, which may play a role in embryonic development and in regulating lung-specific genes.

Recently FOXF1 abnormalities were detected in up to 70% of ACD/MPV cases; however, the exact mechanism through which these genetic abnormalities lead to ACD/MPV is yet to be elucidated [5].

All ACD/MPV patients were tested for mutation in FOXF1 and 4 were tested for rearrangements at 16q24 locus.

The disease that usually kills the infants born with it within the first month of life results from deletions or mutations in the FOXF1 transcription factor gene, said a consortium of researchers led by Baylor College of Medicine (www.bcm.edu) in a report that appears in the American Journal of Human Genetics.
