Gene data

TLX2
Name
T cell leukemia homeobox 2
Type
protein-coding
Aliases
HOX11L1, NCX

This gene is a member of an orphan homeobox-containing transcription factor family. Studies of the mouse ortholog have shown that the encoded protein is crucial for the development of the enteric nervous system; in humans, loss-of-function may play a role in tumorigenesis of gastrointestinal stromal tumors.
