RHOXF2
Description
The RHOXF2 (Rhox homeobox family member 2) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome X.
RHOXF2 is a human gene that encodes the Rhox homeobox family member 2 protein, also known as Paired-like homeobox protein (PEPP-2). The protein contains a glutamine-rich N-terminus, a homeodomain, and a proline-rich C-terminus.
RHOXF2 is a transcription factor that plays a role in reproductive processes by regulating the expression of genes involved in spermatogenesis.
RHOXF2 is also known as CT107, PEPP-2, PEPP2, THG1.
