TCF4
TCF4, or sometimes referred to as immunoglobulin transcription factor 2, is a protein coding gene located on chromosome 18q21.1 which codes for approximately 623 proteins. == Function == TCF4 proteins act as transcription factors which will bind to the immunoglobulin enhancer mu-E5/kappa-E2 motif. TCF4 activates transcription by binding to the E-box (5’-CANNTG-3’) found usually on SSTR2-INR, or somatostatin receptor 2 initiator element. TCF4 is primarily involved in neurological development of the fetus during pregnancy by initiating neural differentiation by binding to DNA. It is found in the central nervous system, somites, and gonadal ridge during early development. Later in development it will be found in the thyroid, thymus, and kidneys while in adulthood TCF4 it will be found in lymphocytes, muscles, and gastrointestinal system.
