This gene is located within a D4Z4 repeat array in the subtelomeric region of chromosome 4q.
The D4Z4 repeat is polymorphic in length; a similar D4Z4 repeat array has been identified on chromosome 10.
Each D4Z4 repeat unit has an open reading frame (named DUX4) that encodes two homeoboxes; the repeat-array and ORF is conserved in other mammals.
The encoded protein has been reported to function as a transcriptional activator of paired-like homeodomain transcription factor 1 (PITX1; GeneID 5307).
Contraction of the macrosatellite repeat causes autosomal dominant facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD).
Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
