Gene Information

human ... TWIST2(117581)

General description

Twist family bHLH transcription factor 2 (TWIST2) is part of the basic helix-loop-helix protein (bHLH) family. It acts as a molecular switch by activating or repressing target genes. The TWIST2 gene is localized on human chromosome 2q37.3.

Immunogen

TWIST2 (AAH33168, 1 a.a. ~ 160 a.a) full-length recombinant protein with GST tag. MW of the GST tag alone is 26 KDa.

Application

Monoclonal Anti-TWIST2 antibody produced in mouse has been used in immunohistochemistry.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Twist family bHLH transcription factor 2 (TWIST2) modulates transcription in mesenchymal cell lineages during development. It interacts with E-protein modulators and binds with E-box on DNA sequences. Mutations in the TWIST2 gene have been linked with Setleis syndrome.

Physical form

Solution in phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4
