Zinc finger protein basonuclin-2

Protein found in humans


Zinc finger protein basonuclin-2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the BNC2 gene.[5][6] BNC2 has recently been shown to influence skin pigmentation levels in Europeans.[7] Genomic region spanning the BNC2 gene has 60% Neanderthal DNA sequence.[8]
