Human Forkhead Box Protein P2,FOXP2 ELI

Transcriptional repressor that may play a role in the specification and differentiation of lung epithelium.

May also play a role in developing neural, gastrointestinal and cardiovascular tissues.

Can act with CTBP1 to synergistically repress transcription but CTPBP1 is not essential.

Plays a role in synapse formation by regulating SRPX2 levels.

Involved in neural mechanisms mediating the development of speech and language.
