Transcription regulator protein BACH2 (broad complex-tramtrack-bric a brac and Cap'n'collar homology 2) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the BACH2 gene.[1][2][3] It contains a BTB/POZ domain at its N-terminus which forms a disulphide-linked dimer [4] and a bZip_Maf domain at the C-terminus.

Disease associations

Single nucleotide variants in BACH2 have been linked to a number of autoimmune diseases in humans.[5] Mendelian BACH2-related immunodeficiency and autoimmunity (BRIDA) syndrome in humans is caused by haploinsufficiency of this transcription factor resulting from germline mutations.[6]

Model organisms

Model organisms have been used in the study of BACH2 function. A conditional knockout mouse line called Bach2tm1a(EUCOMM)Wtsi was generated at the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute.[7] Male and female animals underwent a standardized phenotypic screen[8] to determine the effects of deletion.[9][10][11][12] Additional screens performed: - In-depth immunological phenotyping[13] - in-depth bone and cartilage phenotyping[14]
