Structural highlights
Disease
ZEB2_HUMAN Mowat-Wilson syndrome due to monosomy 2q22;Mowat-Wilson syndrome due to a ZEB2 point mutation. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Function
ZEB2_HUMAN Transcriptional inhibitor that binds to DNA sequence 5'-CACCT-3' in different promoters (PubMed:16061479, PubMed:20516212). Represses transcription of E-cadherin (PubMed:16061479). Represses expression of MEOX2 (PubMed:20516212).[1] [2]
