Background: EMX2

EMX-2 (also Empty spiracles homolog 2) is a 30-33 kDa member of the EMX homeobox family of molecules. It is expressed in embryonic neural stem and progenitor cells, and promotes their commitment to a neuronal phenotype. In a more global sense, it also promotes the formation of networks that favor visual sensation. In the adult, EMX-2 is found in neural stem cells where it acts to maintain a pool of available stem cells. Human EMX-2 is 252 amino acids (aa) in length. It contains one poly-Ala region (aa 54-59) and a DNA-binding homeobox domain (aa 154-213). There is one potential splice variant that shows a 33 aa substitution for aa 137-252. Over aa 59-143, human EMX-2 shares 98% aa identity with mouse EMX-2.
