Eyes absent homolog 2

Eyes absent homolog 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the EYA2 gene.

Function

This gene encodes a member of the eyes absent (EYA) subfamily of proteins. The encoded protein may be post-translationally modified and may play a role in eye development. A similar protein in mice can act as a transcriptional activator. Five transcript variants encoding three distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene.

Interactions

EYA2 has been shown to interact with GNAI2 and GNAZ.
