FOXK2, ILF, ILF1, Forkhead box protein K2, Cellular transcription factor ILF-1, FOXK1, Interleukin enhancer-binding factor 1

The protein encoded by this gene contains a fork head DNA binding domain. This protein can bind to the purine-rich motifs of the HIV long terminal repeat (LTR), and to the similar purine-rich motif in the interleukin 2 (IL2) promoter. It may be involved in the regulation of viral and cellular promoter elements. [provided by RefSeq].
