Gene: SREBF2 (sterol regulatory element binding transcription factor 2) Homo sapiens

Symbol:

SREBF2

Name:

sterol regulatory element binding transcription factor 2

Description:

This gene encodes a ubiquitously expressed transcription factor that controls cholesterol homeostasis by stimulating transcription of sterol-regulated genes. The encoded protein contains a basic helix-loop-helix-leucine zipper (bHLH-Zip) domain. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Type:

protein-coding

RefSeq Status:

REVIEWED
