Description
Product Characteristics: Caudal type homeobox 2, Caudal type homeobox transcription factor 2, Caudal-type homeobox protein 2, CDX2,CDX2 / Caudal Type Homeobox 2 (GI Epithelial Marker)
Cellular localisation: Nuclear
Target Information: This gene is a member of the caudal-related homeobox transcription factor gene family. The encoded protein is a major regulator of intestine-specific genes involved in cell growth an differentiation. This protein also plays a role in early embryonic development of the intestinal tract. Aberrant expression of this gene is associated with intestinal inflammation and tumorigenesis. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2012]
