class E basic helix-loop-helix protein 40; bHLHe40; class B basic helix-loop-helix protein 2; bHLHb2; differentially expressed in chondrocytes protein 1; DEC1; enhancer-of-split & hairy-related protein 2; SHARP-2; stimulated by retinoic acid gene 13 protein (BHLHE40, BHLHB2, DEC1, SHARP2, STRA13)

Function: - may function as a transcriptional factor to modulate chondrogenesis in response to the cAMP pathway - ubiquitinated; which may lead to proteasomal degradation - able to homodimerize or heterodimerize with TCF3/E47 - interacts with ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme UBE2I/UBC9 Structure: - contains 1 basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) domain - contains 1 Orange domain Compartment: nucleus Expression: - expressed in cartilage, spleen, intestine, lung, > heart, brain, liver, muscle & stomach
