COUP-TFII

Protein found in humans From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

COUP-TFII (COUP transcription factor 2), also known as NR2F2 (nuclear receptor subfamily 2, group F, member 2) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the NR2F2 gene.[5][6] The COUP acronym stands for chicken ovalbumin upstream promoter.

Function

COUP-TFII plays a critical role in controlling the development of a number of tissues and organs including heart, blood vessels, muscles and limbs.[7][8]

The glucocorticoid receptor (GR) stimulates COUP-TFII-induced transactivation while COUP-TFII represses the GR transcriptional activity.[9][10] COUP-TFII interacts with GATA2 to inhibit adipocyte differentiation.[11]

Structure and ligands

The structure of COUP-TF2 LBD is known. Retinoic acid, although not at physiological concentrations, activate this receptor.[12]

Interactions
