Gene

Vax2

Species
Rattus norvegicus
Symbol
Vax2
Name
ventral anterior homeobox 2
Synonyms
  • ventral anterior homeobox containing gene 2
Biotype
protein coding gene
Automated Description
Predicted to enable DNA binding activity and DNA-binding transcription repressor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific. Predicted to be involved in forebrain development; neuron differentiation; and regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including dorsal/ventral axis specification; eye development; and negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Orthologous to human VAX2 (ventral anterior homeobox 2).
