Background
Activation Protein transcription factor 2 (AP2) is a developmentally regulated transcription factor that recognizes a specific sequence CCCCAGGC or related sequences present in several promoter and enhancer gene regions including the promoters of the AP2 genes themselves. There are three different but highly homologous AP2 isoforms: alpha, beta, and gamma (ERF-1), encoded by three different retinoic acid-responsive genes. Each form of AP2 possesses the DNA binding domain (basic helix-span-helix motif) characteristic of this family of transcription factors. The AP2 proteins are normally expressed in ectodermally derived vertebrate tissues where they are necessary for normal growth and development. The factors have also been implicated in the control of cell proliferation, viral transformation, and oncogenesis. AP2 seems to play in important role in human breast cancer.
