Description |
oligodendrocyte transcription factor 2 |
| Gene Summary |
Enables DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; HMG box domain binding activity; and identical protein binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II; nervous system development; and positive regulation of oligodendrocyte differentiation. Located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; epidermis; future brain; genitourinary system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human OLIG2 (oligodendrocyte transcription factor 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, May 2025] |
