Protein Structure
UniProt Annotation
Function Acts as a transcriptional regulator of PAX6. Also acts as a transcriptional activator of PF4 in complex with PBX1 or PBX2. Required for hematopoiesis, megakaryocyte lineage development and vascular patterning. May function as a cofactor for HOXA7 and HOXA9 in the induction of myeloid leukemias. {ECO:0000269PubMed:12183364, ECO:0000269PubMed:15882575}.
Subcellular Localization Nucleus {ECO:0000255PROSITE- ProRule:PRU00108, ECO:0000269PubMed:10082572, ECO:0000269PubMed:15882575}.
Disease Associations Note=Meis1 serves as a site of viral integration in 15% of the tumors arising in BXH-2 mice that develop myeloid leukemia as a result of the expression of an ecotropic murine leukemia virus.
Tissue Specificity Expressed at high levels in the lung with lower levels detected in the heart and brain.
