products description :
The protein encoded by this gene is a sequence-specific DNA-binding transcription factor involved in the activation of several developmental genes. The encoded protein can act as either a homodimer or heterodimer with other family members and is induced during retinoic acid-mediated differentiation. It plays a role in the development of the eyes, face, body wall, limbs, and neural tube. [NCBI Entrez Gene Summary]

uniprot summary :
AP-2 gamma: Sequence-specific DNA-binding protein that interacts with inducible viral and cellular enhancer elements to regulate transcription of selected genes. AP-2 factors bind to the consensus sequence 5 -GCCNNNGGC-3 and activate genes involved in a large spectrum of important biological functions including proper eye, face, body wall, limb and neural tube development. They also suppress a number of genes including MCAM/MUC18, C/EBP alpha and MYC. Binds DNA as a dimer. Can form homodimers or heterodimers with other AP-2 family members. Interacts with WWOX. Interacts with CITED4. Interacts with UBE2I. Interacts with KCTD1; this interaction represses transcription activation. Interacts with CITED2 (via C-terminus); the interaction stimulates TFAP2B-transcriptional activity. During retinoic acid-mediated differentiation. Belongs to the AP-2 family. Protein type: Motility/polarity/chemotaxis; Transcription factor; DNA-binding. Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 20q13.2. Cellular Component: nucleus. Molecular Function: protein dimerization activity; protein binding; DNA binding; transcription factor activity. Biological Process: transcription from RNA polymerase II promoter; somatic stem cell maintenance; male gonad development; sebaceous gland development; germ-line stem cell maintenance; negative regulation of transcription from RNA polymerase II promoter; regulation of gene expression, epigenetic; regulation of cell proliferation; trophectodermal cell differentiation; regulation of transcription from RNA polymerase II promoter; hair follicle development; cell-cell signaling; positive regulation of transcription from RNA polymerase II promoter; forebrain neuron fate commitment; cerebral cortex development; regulation of epidermis development
