DBX2


Description

The DBX2 (developing brain homeobox 2) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 12.

DBX2 is a human gene that encodes a protein involved in central nervous system development, particularly in the neural tube and brain. It is located on chromosome 12 and is about 36,000 base pairs long. DBX2 is predicted to bind DNA and regulate gene expression. It was first identified in a mouse embryo in 1992, and its expression patterns in the developing brain and spinal cord suggest a role in neural patterning and differentiation. DBX2 has been linked to several diseases, including glioblastoma, hepatocellular carcinoma, and endometrial cancer.

DBX2 is also known as -.
