Gene information for TFCP2 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID7024
Official gene symbolTFCP2
Full nametranscription factor CP2
Aliases,LBP1C,LSF,LSF1D,SEF,TFCP2C,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a transcription factor that binds the alpha-globin promoter and activates transcription of the alpha-globin gene. The encoded protein regulates erythroid gene expression, plays a role in the transcriptional switch of globin gene promoters, and it activates many other cellular and viral gene promoters. The gene product interacts with certain inflammatory response factors, and polymorphisms of this gene may be involved in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease. [provided by RefSeq]
