General description

Dux4 is a homeodomain protein with a similar protein sequence to Pax3 and Pax7. Defects in Dux4 may be the cause of facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD). FSHD is characterized by weakness of the muscles of the face, upper-arm and shoulder girdle. Ectopic expression of Dux4 in skeletal muscle activates the expression of stem cell and germline genes, and, when overexpressed in somatic cells, Dux4 can ultimately lead to cell death.
