General Description

The Id-2 protein, also known as inhibitor of DNA binding 2, is a transcription factor that plays a crucial role in the regulation of cell differentiation and proliferation. It belongs to the helix-loop-helix (HLH) family of proteins and is involved in inhibiting the activity of other transcription factors, thereby impacting various cellular processes such as cell cycle progression and apoptosis. Id-2 is found to be overexpressed in various cancer cells and contributes to tumor growth and metastasis. It is also involved in the development and regulation of the immune system, particularly in the differentiation of T cells and B cells. Additionally, Id-2 has been implicated in the development of cardiovascular diseases and neurodegenerative disorders, making it a potential target for therapeutic interventions.
