EVI2B
Description
The EVI2B (ecotropic viral integration site 2B) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 17.
The EVI2B gene produces the EVI2B protein, which is essential for the development and function of granulocytes.
EVI2B plays a crucial role in the differentiation and proper function of granulocytes, a type of white blood cell. It achieves this by regulating the cell cycle progression and survival of hematopoietic progenitor cells, which are the precursors of all blood cells.
EVI2B is also known as CD361, D17S376, EVDB.
