Most malignant cells displayed moderate to strong nuclear immunoreactivity, often accompanied with cytoplasmic staining. Strongest positivity was observed in malignant gliomas, lymphomas and colorectal cancers.

Description
Transcription factor 12 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) E-protein family that recognizes the consensus binding site (E-box) CANNTG. This encoded protein is expressed in many tissues, among them skeletal muscle, thymus, B- and T-cells, and may participate in regulating lineage-specific gene expression through the formation of heterodimers with other bHLH E-proteins. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants of this gene have been described, but the full-length nature of some of these variants has not been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
