Hivep2 - human immunodeficiency virus type I enhancer binding protein 2 Gene

Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to act upstream of or within signal transduction and transcription, DNA-templated. Predicted to be located in nucleoplasm. Predicted to be part of transcription regulator complex. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including branchial arch; central nervous system; embryo mesenchyme; hepatic primordium; and urinary system. Used to study intellectual disability and schizophrenia. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal dominant non-syndromic intellectual disability 43. Orthologous to human HIVEP2 (HIVEP zinc finger 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
