Gene data

YBX2
Name
Y-box binding protein 2
Type
protein-coding
Aliases
CONTRIN, CSDA3, DBPC, MSY2

This gene encodes a nucleic acid binding protein which is highly expressed in germ cells. The encoded protein binds to a Y-box element in the promoters of certain genes but also binds to mRNA transcribed from these genes. Pseudogenes for this gene are located on chromosome 10 and 15.
