KLF12 - KLF transcription factor 12 Gene
Also Known as AP2REP; AP-2rep; HSPC122
Species: Homo sapiens
About KLF12
This gene has 3 transcripts (splice variants), 226 orthologues and 22 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in lymph node (RPKM 6.4), spleen (RPKM 4.4) and 24 other tissues.
Summary
Activator protein-2 alpha (AP-2 alpha) is a developmentally-regulated transcription factor and important regulator of gene expression during vertebrate development and carcinogenesis. The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the Kruppel-like Zinc Finger Protein family and can repress expression of the AP-2 alpha gene by binding to a specific site in the AP-2 alpha gene promoter. Repression by the encoded protein requires binding with a corepressor, CtBP1. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
