SATB2 SATB homeobox 2

Gene ID: 23314, updated on 4-Jan-2025
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: GLSS; DEL2Q32Q33; C2DELq32q33

Summary

This gene encodes a DNA binding protein that specifically binds nuclear matrix attachment regions. The encoded protein is involved in transcription regulation and chromatin remodeling. Defects in this gene are associated with isolated cleft palate and cognitive disability. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants that encode the same protein.
