Description
Product Characteristics:
The protein encoded by ZFP91 is a member of the zinc finger family of proteins. This protein contains C2H2 type domains, which are the classical zinc finger domains found in numerous nucleic acid-binding proteins. May be involved in transcriptional regulation. May play an important role in cell proliferation and/or anti-apoptosis Found in all the examined tissues including brain, heart, kidney, lung, liver, spleen, thymus, skeletal muscle, ovary and testis. Belongs to the krueppel C2H2-type zinc-finger protein family.
Subcellular location: Nucleus
Synonyms: zinc finger protein 91, FKSG11, HGNC:14983, PZF, zinc finger protein 91 homolog mouse, zinc finger protein homologous to mouse Zfp91, ZFP91_HUMAN.
Target Information: The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the zinc finger family of proteins. The gene product contains C2H2-type domains, which are the classical zinc finger domains found in numerous nucleic acid-binding proteins. This protein functions as a regulator of the non-canonical NF-kappaB pathway in lymphotoxin-beta receptor signaling. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. A read-through transcript variant composed of ZFP91 and the downstream CNTF gene sequence has been identified, but it is thought to be non-coding. Read-through transcription of ZFP91 and CNTF has also been observed in mouse. A ZFP91-related pseudogene has also been identified on chromosome 2. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2010]
