Transcription factor which regulates the transcription of multiple genes expressed in the intestinal epithelium (By similarity). Binds to the promoter of the intestinal sucrase-isomaltase SI and activates SI transcription (By similarity). Binds to the DNA sequence 5'-ATAAAAACTTAT-3' in the promoter region of VDR and activates VDR transcription (By similarity). Binds to and activates transcription of LPH (By similarity). Activates transcription of CLDN2 and intestinal mucin MUC2 (By similarity). Binds to the 5'-AATTTTTTACAACACCT-3' DNA sequence in the promoter region of CA1 and activates CA1 transcription (By similarity). Important in broad range of functions from early differentiation to maintenance of the intestinal epithelial lining of both the small and large intestine. Binds preferentially to methylated DNA (PubMed:28473536).

CDX2 or Caudal Type Homeobox 2 is a transcription factor involved in intestinal development and differentiation. Alternative names for CDX2 include Cdx-2 and CDX-2. This protein has a molecular mass of approximately 38 kDa. CDX2 is expressed mainly in the epithelial cells of the intestine. Researchers can identify CDX2 through techniques like CDX2 stain CDX2 immunostain and CDX2 IHC which are useful for determining its expression in tissue samples.
CDX2 plays an important role in controlling the expression of genes necessary for maintaining intestinal epithelial cell identity. It functions as a part of regulatory networks that guide cell fate and differentiation in the gut. CDX2 does not generally form complexes but acts as a transcriptional regulator that binds directly to DNA influencing genes involved in cell adhesion proliferation and the maintenance of tissue structure.
CDX2 is integral to the Wnt signaling and Hedgehog pathways which are vital for intestinal development and homeostasis. Within these pathways CDX2 works closely with other proteins like beta-catenin influencing cell proliferation and differentiation. The Wnt pathway in particular modulates the expression of proliferative genes while CDX2 ensures that proliferation maintains tissue integrity by guiding cellular differentiation.
CDX2 has a significant link to colorectal cancer and Barrett's esophagus. Loss of CDX2 expression often marks the progression from normal to malignant tissue in colorectal cancer where it connects with proteins like p-catenin affecting cellular growth and differentiation. Similarly abnormal expression of CDX2 correlates with the development of Barrett's esophagus a condition that may progress to esophageal adenocarcinoma. These disease associations make CDX2 a potential diagnostic marker and therapeutic target in gastrointestinal pathologies.
