Most cancer tissues showed weak to moderate nuclear positivity and in a few cases additional cytoplasmic staining. A few cases of ovarian, cervical and pancreatic cancers displayed strong positivity.
GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
FOXK2 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
ILF, ILF1
Description
Forkhead box K2 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
The protein encoded by this gene contains a fork head DNA binding domain. This protein can bind to the purine-rich motifs of the HIV long terminal repeat (LTR), and to the similar purine-rich motif in the interleukin 2 (IL2) promoter. It may be involved in the regulation of viral and cellular promoter elements. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
