Gene nameOLIG2
Protein nameOligodendrocyte transcription factor 2
Oligodendrocyte transcription factor 2 (Oligo2) (Class B basic helix-loop-helix protein 1) (bHLHb1) (Class E basic helix-loop-helix protein 19) (bHLHe19) (Protein kinase C-binding protein 2) (Protein kinase C-binding protein RACK17)
SynonymsRACK17
BHLHB1
BHLHE19
PRKCBP2
DescriptionFUNCTION: Required for oligodendrocyte and motor neuron specification in the spinal cord, as well as for the development of somatic motor neurons in the hindbrain. Functions together with ZNF488 to promote oligodendrocyte differentiation. Cooperates with OLIG1 to establish the pMN domain of the embryonic neural tube. Antagonist of V2 interneuron and of NKX2-2-induced V3 interneuron development. .
