    basic FUNCTION
  • may be playing an important role in the hypothalamo-pituitary-gonadal system
  • participating in other specific events related to reproduction, particularly in the female
  • given the essential function of TBX21 in NK cell differentiation, TOX2 therefore plays a crucial role in controlling normal NK cell development by acting upstream of TBX21
