cd19702: bHLH_TS_HEN2 
basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) domain found in helix-loop-helix protein 2 (HEN-2) and similar proteins
HEN-2, also termed nescient helix-loop-helix 2 (Nhlh2), or Class A basic helix-loop-helix protein 34 (bHLHa34), or nescient helix loop helix 2 (NSCL-2), is a neuron-specific bHLH transcription factor that may serve as DNA-binding protein and may be involved in the control of cell-type determination, possibly within the developing nervous system.
