V-erbA-related gene

Protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens

V-erbA-related protein 2 (EAR-2) also known as NR2F6 (nuclear receptor subfamily 2 group F member 6) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the NR2F6 gene.[5] V-erbA-related protein 2 is a member of the nuclear receptor family of intracellular transcription factors. It is named after its similarity to v-erbA (P03373), a helper of an oncoprotein called v-erbB in avian erythroblastosis virus.[6]

Function

Comparatively little is known about ear-2, but it has been shown to function as a coregulator of other nuclear receptors.[7][8]
