Description_x000D_ General description_x000D_ 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._x000D_ Transcription factor 7-like 2 (TCF7L2) belongs to the TCF/LEF (T-cell factor/lymphoid enhancer-binding factor) family of proteins. The gene encoding it is localized on human chromosome 10q25._x000D_ Immunogen_x000D_ TCF7L2 (AAH32656, 1 a.a. ~ 455 a.a) full-length recombinant protein with GST tag.
