Gene nameMT2A
Protein nameMetallothionein
Metallothionein-2 (MT-2) (Metallothionein-2A) (Metallothionein-II) (MT-II)
SynonymsMT2
CES1
DescriptionFUNCTION: Metallothioneins have a high content of cysteine residues that bind various heavy metals; these proteins are transcriptionally regulated by both heavy metals and glucocorticoids.
