High impact information on Obox2
- The Obox1 and Obox2 genomic structures revealed the presence of six exons each [1].
- During our analysis, we identified Obox1 and Obox2 transcripts as preferentially expressed in the mouse unfertilized egg libraries [1].
Other interactions of Obox2
- Obox1 and Obox2 transcripts encode homeodomain proteins of 204 amino acids that share 97% identity with each other [1].
