About FOXJ2

Cytogenetic location: 12p13.31 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 12:8,032,716-8,055,517 (from NCBI)

This gene has 3 transcripts (splice variants), 124 orthologues and 42 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in endometrium (RPKM 8.4), ovary (RPKM 8.2) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

Enables DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity; and identical protein binding activity. Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of angiogenesis; negative regulation of blood vessel endothelial cell differentiation; and positive regulation of vascular associated smooth muscle cell proliferation. Located in fibrillar center and nucleoplasm. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
