| Name | NHLH2 |
|---|---|
| Synonyms | BHLHA34, HEN2, KIAA0490 |
| Function | Transcription factor which binds the E box motif 5'- CA[TC][AG]TG-3'. Involved in regulating energy expenditure, body mass, voluntary physical activity, mating behavior and reproductive longevity, acting through the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis. Acts as a transcriptional activator of target genes, including NDN, PCSK1, MC4R (By similarity). Is also a transcriptional activator of KISS1 (PubMed:35066646). May act centrally to regulate function of both white and brown adipose tissue. Together with NHLH1, required to maintain migration and survival of cells in the anterior extramural migration stream (aes), which forms the precerebellar nuclei. Also, in concert with NHLH1, may determine fate of gonadotropin releasing hormone-1 (GnRH-1) neurons. |
| Cellular Location | Nucleus {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU00981}. |

Background
NHLH2 may serve as DNA-binding protein and may be involved in the control of cell-type determination, possibly within the developing nervous system.

Foundational characteristics of cancer include proliferation, angiogenesis, migration, evasion of apoptosis, and cellular immortality. Find key markers for these cellular processes and antibodies to detect them.
The SUMOplot™ Analysis Program predicts and scores sumoylation sites in your protein. SUMOylation is a post-translational modification involved in various cellular processes, such as nuclear-cytosolic transport, transcriptional regulation, apoptosis, protein stability, response to stress, and progression through the cell cycle.
The Autophagy Receptor Motif Plotter predicts and scores autophagy receptor binding sites in your protein. Identifying proteins connected to this pathway is critical to understanding the role of autophagy in physiological as well as pathological processes such as development, differentiation, neurodegenerative diseases, stress, infection, and cancer.
