{"symbol":"TCF7L2","synonyms":["TCF-4","TCF4"],"name":"transcription factor 7-like 2 (T-cell specific, HMG-box)","description":"This gene encodes a high mobility group (HMG) box-containing transcription factor that plays a key role in the Wnt signaling pathway. The protein has been implicated in blood glucose homeostasis. Genetic variants of this gene are associated with increased risk of type 2 diabetes. Several transcript variants encoding multiple different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Oct 2010]","ncbiEntrezGeneId":6934,"ncbiEntrezGeneUrl":"http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/6934","proteins":[{"symbol":"TF7L2_HUMAN","href":"/api/1.0/protein/TF7L2_HUMAN"}],"hgncRootFamilies":[]}
