TGIF2 Polyclonal Antibody

function:Transcriptional repressor, which probably repress transcription by binding directly the 5'-CTGTCAA-3' DNA sequence or by interacting with TGF-beta activated SMAD proteins. Probably represses transcription via the recruitment of histone deacetylase proteins.,miscellaneous:TGIF2 is amplified and overexpressed in several ovarian cancer cell lines.,PTM:The C-terminal part is phosphorylated in response to EGF signaling by the Ras/MAPK pathway.,similarity:Belongs to the TALE/TGIF homeobox family.,similarity:Contains 1 homeobox DNA-binding domain.,subcellular location:Excluded from nucleoli.,subunit:Interacts with the transcriptional modulator SMAD3 and the histone deacetylase HDAC1.,tissue specificity:Widely expressed. Highly expressed in heart, kidney and testis. Weakly expressed in brain and prostate.,
