TBX2: Products

T-box protein 2 (TBX2) is a member of the T-box family of transcription factors and functions in the transcriptional regulation of genes required for mesoderm differentiation and limb bud pattern formation. The 74 kDa (predicted MW) nuclear protein, like other T-box family members, contains a T-domain which is involved in DNA binding and dimerization of the protein (aa 99 - 277). Human TBX2 shows 96%, 95%, and 71% amino acid identity with dog, mouse, and Xenopus tropicalis TBX2, respectively.
