Gene ID: 60436

About TGIF2

Cytogenetic location: 20q11.23 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 20:36,573,464-36,593,950 (from NCBI)

This gene has 9 transcripts (splice variants), 162 orthologues and 12 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in endometrium (RPKM 10.3), lymph node (RPKM 7.6) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a DNA-binding homeobox protein and a transcriptional repressor, which appears to repress transcription by recruiting histone deacetylases to TGF beta-responsive genes. This gene is amplified and over-expressed in some ovarian cancers. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. A related pseudogene has been identified on chromosome 1. Read-through transcription also exists between this gene and the neighboring downstream C20orf24 (chromosome 20 open reading frame 24) gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2010]
