Hoxb2 - homeobox B2

Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including central nervous system development; embryonic skeletal system morphogenesis; and regionalization. Predicted to be located in nucleoplasm. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including branchial arch; future hindbrain; lung; metanephros; and nervous system. Orthologous to human HOXB2 (homeobox B2).
