Gene: RBFOX2
Alternate names for this Gene: FOX2|Fox-2|HNRBP2|HRNBP2|RBM9|RTA|dJ106I20.3|fxh
Gene Summary: This gene is one of several human genes similar to the C. elegans gene Fox-1. This gene encodes an RNA binding protein that is thought to be a key regulator of alternative exon splicing in the nervous system and other cell types. The protein binds to a conserved UGCAUG element found downstream of many alternatively spliced exons and promotes inclusion of the alternative exon in mature transcripts. The protein also interacts with the estrogen receptor 1 transcription factor and regulates estrogen receptor 1 transcriptional activity. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
Gene is located in Chromosome: 22
Location in Chromosome : 22q12.3
Description of this Gene: RNA binding fox-1 homolog 2
