Gene information for PBX2 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID5089
Official gene symbolPBX2
Full namepre-B-cell leukemia homeobox 2
Aliases,G17,HOX12,PBX2MHC,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a ubiquitously expressed member of the TALE/PBX homeobox family. It was identified by its similarity to a homeobox gene which is involved in t(1;19) translocation in acute pre-B-cell leukemias. This protein is a transcriptional activator which binds to the TLX1 promoter. The gene is located within the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) on chromosome 6. [provided by RefSeq]
