What is FOXP2 ?

Forkhead Box Protein P2

FOXP2 as a complete protein Pi 2 box is a protein that in humans is Gene, "FOXP2" is coded. The gene name, such as "CAGH44 a", "SPCH1" or "TNRC10" are, and the direction of evolution, correct the power of speech and language learning in humans is essential. This gene in many other vertebrates, there is also in them, plays an important role in the creation of the connection (for example, creating the sound of the birds) plays.

This gene on the long arm of chromosome 7 located in the brain, heart, lungs and intestines of the fetus and the adult human express.
