Gene information for LHX2 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID9355
Official gene symbolLHX2
Full nameLIM homeobox 2
Aliases,LH2,MGC138390,hLhx2,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a protein belonging to a large protein family, members of which carry the LIM domain, a unique cysteine-rich zinc-binding domain. The encoded protein may function as a transcriptional regulator. The protein can recapitulate or rescue phenotypes in Drosophila caused by a related protein, suggesting conservation of function during evolution. [provided by RefSeq]
