Transcription factor 3 (E2A immunoglobulin enhancer-binding factors E12/E47), also known as TCF3, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TCF3 gene. TCF3 has been shown to directly enhance Hes1 (a well-known target of Notch signaling) expression. TCF3 encodes for E2A protein, which belongs to the helix loop helix transcription factor family. E2A activates transcription of downstream genes by binding to E-box motifs as a homo or hetero dimer. E2A plays an important role in B lymphocyte development. Therefore deletion or mutations in TCF3 or even lowered activity of E2A are causes of B cell leukemia and lymphomas.
