(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID7392
Official gene symbolUSF2
Full nameupstream transcription factor 2, c-fos interacting
Aliases,FIP,bHLHb12,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a member of the basic helix-loop-helix leucine zipper family, and can function as a cellular transcription factor. The encoded protein can activate transcription through pyrimidine-rich initiator (Inr) elements and E-box motifs. Two transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq]
