The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the highly conserved cyclin family, whose members are characterized by a dramatic periodicity in protein abundance through the cell cycle. Cyclins function as regulators of CDK kinases. Different cyclins exhibit distinct expression and degradation patterns which contribute to the temporal coordination of each mitotic event. This cyclin and its kinase partner CDK9 were found to be subunits of the transcription elongation factor p-TEFb. The p-TEFb complex containing this cyclin was reported to interact with, and act as a negative regulator of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) Tat protein. A pseudogene of this gene is found on chromosome 1. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, Dec 2010].

La ciclina T2 (CCNT2) es una proteína codificada en humanos por el gen CCNT2. La ciclina T2 pertenece a la familia de las ciclinas, cuyos miembros se caracterizan por variar drásticamente sus concentraciones a medida que progresa el ciclo celular. Las ciclinas funcionan como reguladores de las quinasas dependientes de ciclinas (Cdks). Las diferentes ciclinas presentan diversos patrones de expresión y degradación que contribuyen a una coordinación temporal de cada fase del ciclo celular. La ciclina T2 y su quinasa correspondiente, Cdk9, son subunidades del factor transcripcional de elongación . El complejo p-TEFb que contiene esta ciclina interacciona y actúa como regulador negativo de la proteína Tat del virus de inmunodeficiencia humana tipo 1 (VIH-1). Se han descrito dos variantes transcripcionales de este gen, que codifican diferentes isoformas de la proteína.
