NCIt synonyms : LIM Domain Only 2; T-Cell Translocation Gene 2 Protein; Rhombotin 2; LIM-Only Protein 2; LIM Domain Only Protein 2; Lim Domain Only 2 Protein; Rhombotin-Like 1; LMO2; T-Cell Translocation Protein; TTG-2 Protein; Cysteine-Rich Protein TTG-2; LMO-2; Rhombotin-Like 1 Protein; LMO2 Protein; Rhombotin 2 Protein; T-Cell Translocation Protein 2;
NCIt definition : Rhombotin-2 (158 aa, 18 kDa) is encoded by the human LMO2 gene. This protein is involved
in erythrocyte development.;
NCIt note : With two LIM domains and a cysteine-rich motif, rhombotin 2 is part of a multi-protein
transcription regulatory complex that includes GATA-1. LMO2 protein binds to the bHLH
TAL1 protein and interacts with retinoblastoma binding protein-2, enhancing transcription.;
