FOXF2 - forkhead box F2 Gene
Also Known as FKHL6; FREAC2; FREAC-2
Species: Homo sapiens
About FOXF2
This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 202 orthologues and 4 paralogues. Biased expression in lung (RPKM 8.4), prostate (RPKM 6.0) and 13 other tissues.
Summary
FOXF2 encodes forkhead box F2, one of many human homologues of the Drosophila melanogaster transcription factor forkhead. FOXF2 is expressed in lung and placenta, and has been shown to transcriptionally activate several lung-specific genes. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
