Nkx3.1 is a transcription factor that may play an important role in regulating proliferation of glandular epithelium and in the formation of ducts in the prostate. It has been thought to be one of the target genes of the 8p21 loss of heterozygosity, common in prostate cancer. But neither disruption of the coding region of the gene, nor mutations have been found in prostate cancer.
