TGIF2LY (TGFB Induced Factor Homeobox 2 Like, Y-Linked) is a Protein Coding gene. An important paralog of TGIF2LY is TGIF2LX. TGIF2LY encodes a member of the TALE/TGIF homeobox family of transcription factors. TGIF2LY lies within the male specific region of chromosome Y, in a block of sequence that is thought to be the result of a large X-to-Y transposition. The C-terminus of this protein is divergent from that of its chromosome X homolog (TGIF2LX), suggesting that this protein may act as a regulator of TGIF2LX.
