ASCL2
View/Edit Human | View/Edit Mouse |
Achaete-scute complex homolog 2 (Drosophila), also known as ASCL2, is an imprinted human gene.[3]
Function
This gene is a member of the basic helix-loop-helix (BHLH) family of transcription factors. It activates transcription by binding to the E box (5'-CANNTG-3'). Dimerization with other BHLH proteins is required for efficient DNA binding. Involved in the determination of the neuronal precursors in the peripheral nervous system and the central nervous system.[3]
Interactions
ASCL2 has been shown to interact with NCOA6[4] and RBBP5.[4]
