EOMES is a 72kD member of the TBR1 subfamily, T-box family of transcription factors. It is expressed in NK and CD8+ T cells, where CTLA4 activation suppresses EOMES activation of IFN-g and granzyme B genes. It is also found in the embryo, where it occurs in forebrain floorplate and migrating neuroblasts at 12.5 weeks gestation. Notably, it is reported to undergo intercellular transfer in fetal Xenopus tissue destined to become mesoderm. Here, it synchronizes a multicellular commitment to a cell lineage.
