Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 7080
Gene name NK2 homeobox 1
Gene symbol NKX2-1
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
BCHBHCNK-2NKX2.1NKX2ANMTC1T/EBPTEBPTITF1TTF-1TTF1
Chromosome 14
Chromosome location 14q13.3
Summary This gene encodes a protein initially identified as a thyroid-specific transcription factor. The encoded protein binds to the thyroglobulin promoter and regulates the expression of thyroid-specific genes but has also been shown to regulate the expression
