ETS2 ETS proto-oncogene 2, transcription factor

Gene ID: 2114, updated on 2-Nov-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: ETS2IT1

Summary

This gene encodes a transcription factor which regulates genes involved in development and apoptosis. The encoded protein is also a protooncogene and shown to be involved in regulation of telomerase. A pseudogene of this gene is located on the X chromosome. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2012]
