Target Name

GLI2

Target Full Name

Zinc finger protein GLI2

Target Function

Functions as transcription regulator in the hedgehog (Hh) pathway. Functions as transcriptional activator. May also function as transcriptional repressor. Requires STK36 for full transcriptional activator activity. Required for normal embryonic development.; Involved in the smoothened (SHH) signaling pathway.; Involved in the smoothened (SHH) signaling pathway.; Involved in the smoothened (SHH) signaling pathway.; Involved in the smoothened (SHH) signaling pathway.; Acts as a transcriptional activator in T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1)-infected cells in a Tax-dependent manner. Binds to the DNA sequence 5'-GAACCACCCA-3' which is part of the Tax-responsive element (TRE-2S) regulatory element that augments the Tax-dependent enhancer of HTLV-1.; (Microbial infection) Acts as a transcriptional activators in T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1)-infected cells in a Tax-dependent manner.

Target Background

Enables DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity; and promoter-specific chromatin binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including animal organ development; chordate embryonic development; and regulation of smoothened signaling pathway. Located in several cellular components, including axoneme; ciliary tip; and nuclear speck. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; embryo mesenchyme; eye; genitourinary system; and jaw. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Culler-Jones syndrome; holoprosencephaly 9; and spina bifida. Orthologous to human GLI2 (GLI family zinc finger 2).
