Upstream Stimulatory Factor 2 Definition
Ubiquitously expressed as 3 alternative isoforms by human USF2 Gene, nuclear Upstream Stimulatory Factor 2 is a bHLH transcription factor involved in transcription of a variety of cellular genes that binds to symmetrical E-box DNA (CACGTG) in viral and cellular promoters as a homodimer or USF1/USF2 heterodimer (USF). Efficient DNA binding requires dimerization with another bHLH protein. USF1/USF2A heterodimer represents most USF binding activity. (NCI)
