{"symbol":"NKX2-2","synonyms":["NKX2B","NKX2.2"],"name":"NK2 homeobox 2","description":"The protein encoded by this gene contains a homeobox domain and may be involved in the morphogenesis of the central nervous system. This gene is found on chromosome 20 near NKX2-4, and these two genes appear to be duplicated on chromosome 14 in the form of TITF1 and NKX2-8. The encoded protein is likely to be a nuclear transcription factor.
