The HB9 homeobox transcription factor regulates gene expression during embryonic development and also in specific adult tissues. HB9 gene mutations are implicated in Curriano syndrome, which is characterized by a triad consisting of a presacral tumor, sacral agenesis and anorectal malformation. In human bone marrow cells, HB9 expression directly correlates with CD34 expression. Furthermore, HB9 expression increases in CD34+ cells that are treated with IL-3 and granulocyte macrophage-colony-s

The protein encoded by this gene is the tropomyosin-binding subunit of the troponin complex, which is located on the thin filament of striated muscles and regulates muscle contraction in response to alterations in intracellular calcium ion concentration. Mutations in this gene have been associated with familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy as well as with dilated cardiomyopathy. Transcripts for this gene undergo alternative splicing that results in many tissue-specific isoforms, however, the fu

Glypican 6 is a putative cell surface coreceptor for growth factors, extracellular matrix proteins, proteases and anti proteases. The glypicans comprise a family of glycosylphosphatidylinositol anchored heparan sulfate proteoglycans. The glypicans have been implicated in the control of cell growth and division.
