Entrez ID 3170
Gene name Forkhead box A2
Gene symbol FOXA2
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
HNF-3-betaHNF3BTCF3B
Chromosome 20
Chromosome location 20p11.21
Summary This gene encodes a member of the forkhead class of DNA-binding proteins. These hepatocyte nuclear factors are transcriptional activators for liver-specific genes such as albumin and transthyretin, and they also interact with chromatin. Similar family mem
