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.
