Gene Summary

Gene Symbol USF2   Gene   UCSC   Ensembl
Aliases FIP, bHLHb12
Gene name upstream transcription factor 2, c-fos interacting
Alternate names upstream stimulatory factor 2, c-fos interacting protein, class B basic helix-loop-helix protein 12, major late transcription factor 2,
Gene location 19q13.12 (35268977: 35279820)     Exons: 12     NC_000019.10
Gene summary(Entrez) This gene encodes a member of the basic helix-loop-helix leucine zipper family of transcription factors. The encoded protein can activate transcription through pyrimidine-rich initiator (Inr) elements and E-box motifs and is involved in regulating multiple cellular processes.
