Krueppel-like factor 2; lung krueppel-like factor (KLF2, LKLF)

Function: - binds to the CACCC box in the beta-globin gene promoter & activates transcription (putative) - ubiquitinated - polyubiquitination involves WWP1 & leads to proteasomal degradation - interacts with WWP1 Structure: - belongs to the krueppel C2H2-type Zn+2-finger protein family - contains 3 C2H2-type Zn+2 fingers Compartment: nucleus (putative)
