Upstream stimulatory factor 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the USF2 gene. ^{[5] [6]}

Function

This gene encodes a member of the basic helix-loop-helix leucine zipper family, and can function as a cellular transcription factor. The encoded protein can activate transcription through Pyridine-rich initiator (Inr) elements and E-box motifs. Two transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene. ^[6]

Interactions

USF2 has been shown to interact with USF1 (human gene), ^{[7] [8]} PPRC1 ^[9] and BRCA1. ^[10]

Regulation

The USF2 gene is repressed by the microRNA miR-10a. ^[11]
