Foxc2 - forkhead box C2 Gene
Also Known as Mfh1; Fkh14; MFH-1; Hfhbf3
Species: Mus musculus
Summary
Enables several functions, including DNA-binding transcription activator activity; DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; and promoter-specific chromatin binding activity. Involved in several processes, including positive regulation of cell migration involved in sprouting angiogenesis; positive regulation of vascular wound healing; and regulation of transcription, DNA-templated. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including animal organ development; cell surface receptor signaling pathway; and vasculature development. Predicted to be located in nuclear body. Is expressed in several structures, including cardiovascular system; central nervous system; embryo mesenchyme; limb long bone; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including lymphedema; lymphedema-distichiasis syndrome; obesity; ptosis; and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Orthologous to human FOXC2 (forkhead box C2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
