Entrez gene ID4773
Official gene symbolNFATC2
Full namenuclear factor of activated T-cells, cytoplasmic, calcineurin-dependent 2
Aliases,NFAT1,NFATP,
Gene summaryThis gene is a member of the nuclear factor of activated T cells (NFAT) family. The product of this gene is a DNA-binding protein with a REL-homology region (RHR) and an NFAT-homology region (NHR). This protein is present in the cytosol and only translocates to the nucleus upon T cell receptor (TCR) stimulation, where it becomes a member of the nuclear factors of activated T cells transcription complex. This complex plays a central role in inducing gene transcription during the immune response. Alternate transcriptional splice variants, encoding different isoforms, have been characterized.
