About BACH2
Enables sequence-specific double-stranded DNA binding activity. Involved in primary adaptive immune response involving T cells and B cells. Located in cytosol and nucleoplasm. Part of RNA polymerase II transcription regulator complex. Implicated in immunodeficiency 60. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]
