Goat Anti-FOXP2 (Forkhead Box P2, Forkhead Box Protein P2, CAG Repeat Protein 44, CAGH44, SPCH1, Trinucleotide Repeat-containing Gene 10 Protein, TNRC10)
FOXP2, otherwise known as Forkhead box P2, a highly conserved member of the FOX family of transcription factors, which plays an essential role in brain and lung development. Studies have revealed the importance of FOXP2 in mediating the development of speech and language, and mutations in the human FOXP2 gene have been linked to developmental verbal dyspraxia.
