CC   -!- FUNCTION: Mesodermal transcription factor that plays a key role in
CC       somitogenesis and somitogenesis and limb muscle differentiation
CC       (PubMed:12925591, PubMed:10403250, PubMed:1363541). Required during
CC       limb development for normal appendicular muscle formation and for the
CC       normal regulation of myogenic genes (PubMed:10403250). May have a
CC       regulatory role when quiescent vascular smooth muscle cells reenter the
CC       cell cycle (By similarity). Also acts as a negative regulator of
CC       angiogenesis (PubMed:16116430). Activates expression of CDKN1A and
CC       CDKN2A in endothelial cells, acting as a regulator of vascular cell
CC       proliferation (By similarity). While it activates CDKN1A in a DNA-
CC       dependent manner, it activates CDKN2A in a DNA-independent manner (By
CC       similarity). Together with TCF15, regulates transcription in heart
CC       endothelial cells to regulate fatty acid transport across heart
CC       endothelial cells (PubMed:25561514). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P39020,

CC   -!- SUBUNIT: Interacts with RNF10 (By similarity). Interacts with TCF15
CC       (PubMed:25561514). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P50222,
CC       ECO:0000269|PubMed:25561514}.
CC   -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P50222}. Nucleus
CC       speckle {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P50222}.
CC   -!- DEVELOPMENTAL STAGE: It is not expressed before 8-8.5 dpc
CC       (PubMed:1363541). At 8-8.5 dpc it is found on the entire epithelium of
CC       the somite (PubMed:1363541). At 9.5 dpc its expression is restricted to
CC       the sclerotome (PubMed:1363541). At 10.5 dpc it is found in
CC       sclerotomally derived cells including the vertebral and costal
CC       precursors (PubMed:1363541). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:1363541}.
CC   -!- DOMAIN: The polyhistidine repeat may act as a targeting signal to
CC       nuclear speckles. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P50222}.
CC   -!- DISRUPTION PHENOTYPE: Mice display defective differentiation and
CC       morphogenesis of the limb muscles, characterized by an overall
CC       reduction in muscle mass and elimination of specific muscles
CC       (PubMed:10403250, PubMed:12925591). Embryos also display a cleft palate
CC       phenotype at 15.5 dpc (PubMed:16284941). Mice lacking Meox1 and Meox2
CC       show extremely disrupted somite morphogenesis, patterning and
CC       differentiation (PubMed:12925591). They lack an axial skeleton and
CC       skeletal muscles are severely deficient (PubMed:12925591).
