YBX2( Human )
Y-box binding protein 2
Alias
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.
