Protein

UniProt ID

Q9UIW0

Protein name

Ventral anterior homeobox 2

Protein function

Transcription factor that may function in dorsoventral specification of the forebrain. Regulates the expression of Wnt signaling antagonists including the expression of a truncated TCF7L2 isoform that cannot bind CTNNB1 and acts therefore as a p
