FOXI2
Description
The FOXI2 (forkhead box I2) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 10.
FOXI2 is a gene that provides instructions for making a protein called forkhead box protein I2. This protein is involved in the regulation of gene expression, which is the process of turning genes on and off. FOXI2 plays a role in the development of several tissues and organs, including the brain, heart, and eyes.
FOXI2 is thought to play a role in regulating the activity of other genes.
FOXI2 is also known as -.
