Source-derived summary

Eyes absent homolog 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the EYA1 gene.

This gene encodes a member of the eyes absent (EYA) subfamily of proteins. The encoded protein may play a role in the developing kidney, branchial arches, eye, and ear. Mutations of this gene have been associated with branchiootorenal dysplasia syndrome, branchiootic syndrome, and sporadic cases of congenital cataracts and ocular anterior segment anomalies. A similar protein in mice can act as a transcriptional activator. Four transcript variants encoding three distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene.

Interactions

EYA1 has been shown to interact with SIX1.

Editorial summary

“Eyes absent homolog 1” enters the record as protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens. Crown Archives preserves that source wording while asking what Eyes, absent and homolog can confirm, complicate or overturn.

Editorial reviewA sound reference starting point where classification, measurement and the date of the underlying evidence remain visible. The current 102-word lead offers orientation but no explicit four-digit date, so chronology should not be assumed. The selected authority fields contribute no independent date. Its strongest next move is a source search built around Eyes, absent and homolog.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

“Eyes absent homolog 1” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, Eyes, absent and homolog provides the most credible route into that argument.

Evidence profile

Stable identifiers, scientific names and standards terminology offer the best bridge between this overview and specialist evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 22, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q17917742. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference.

Critical limits

A general summary may omit uncertainty, sample limits or methodological disagreement that is explicit in the technical record. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Check terminology, classification and the date of the cited evidence. Scientific names and technical consensus can change while older records retain historical value.
