Background

Synovial sarcoma, X breakpoint 2, also known as SSX2, is a human gene. The product of this gene belongs to the family of highly homologous synovial sarcoma X (SSX) breakpoint proteins. SSX1, SSX2 and SSX4 genes have been involved in the t (X;18) translocation characteristically found in all synovial sarcomas. The SSX1 and SSX2 genes encode closely related proteins (81% identity) of 188 amino acids that are rich in charged amino acids. The N-terminal portion of each SSX protein exhibits homology to the Kruppel-associated box (KRAB), a transcriptional repressor domain previously found only in Kruppel-type zinc finger proteins.
