Immunogen:
The immunogen is a synthetic peptide directed towards the N terminal region of human NKX2-2
Alternative Names:
NKX2B, NKX2.2
Nkx2-2 contains 1 homeobox DNA-binding domain which is essential for interaction with OLIG2. Nkx2-2 may be involved in specifying diencephalic neuromeric boundaries, and in controlling the expression of genes that play a role in axonal guidance. The protein encoded by this gene contains a homeobox domain and may be involved in the morphogenesis of the central nervous system. This gene is found on chromosome 20 near NKX2-4, and these two genes appear to be duplicated on chromosome 14 in the form of TITF1 and NKX2-8. The encoded protein is likely to be a nuclear transcription factor.
