Cbfa2t2 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Enables transcription corepressor activity. Involved in intestinal epithelial cell differentiation and negative regulation of Notch signaling pathway. Acts upstream of or within epithelial cell differentiation and negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; blastocyst; brain; genitourinary system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human CBFA2T2 (CBFA2/RUNX1 partner transcriptional co-repressor 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Cbfa2t2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
