Description |
upstream transcription factor 2 |
| Gene Summary |
Enables DNA binding activity and DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific. Involved in glucose mediated signaling pathway; lipid homeostasis; and positive regulation of transcription from RNA polymerase II promoter by glucose. Acts upstream of or within lactation; positive regulation of DNA-templated transcription; and regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; dorsal root ganglion; early conceptus; genitourinary system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human USF2 (upstream transcription factor 2, c-fos interacting). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025] |
