HOXB2 is a member of the Antp homeobox family and encodes a nuclear protein with a homeobox DNA-binding domain. It is included in a cluster of homeobox B genes located on chromosome 17. HOXB2 functions as a sequence-specific transcription factor that is involved in development. Increased expression of this gene is associated with pancreatic cancer.This gene is a member of the Antp homeobox family and encodes a nuclear protein with a homeobox DNA-binding domain.
