Other Information

**Key characteristics:** * High expression in various cell types * Plays a key role in cell death * Involved in DNA repair * Regulates cell migration * Involved in inflammation and tissue repair **Pathways and functions:** HMGB2 is involved in several pathways and functions, including: * Apoptosis * Apoptosis-induced DNA fragmentation * Apoptotic execution phase * Chemoattractant activity * Cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding * Damaged DNA binding * Dna binding * Double-stranded DNA binding * Four-way junction DNA binding * Non-sequence-specific DNA binding * Bending * Programmed cell death * Protein binding * Protein domain specific binding * Rna binding * Single-stranded DNA binding * Transcription cis-regulatory region binding * Transcription coactivator activity * Transcription factor binding **Clinical significance:** HMGB2 is a promising target for cancer immunotherapy. Inhibition of HMGB2 has been shown to enhance the efficacy of chemotherapy drugs and improve the survival of cancer cells. However, further research is needed to develop effective HMGB2 inhibitors that are safe and effective for clinical use.
