Description
Product Characteristics:
Description: This gene encodes a C2H2-type zinc finger protein and is closely related to BCL11A, a gene whose translocation may be associated with B-cell malignancies. Although the specific function of this gene has not been determined, the encoded protein is known to be a transcriptional repressor, and is regulated by the NURD nucleosome remodeling and histone deacetylase complex. Four alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been found for this gene.
Aliases: ATL1, RIT1, CTIP2, IMD49, CTIP-2, ZNF856B, ATL1-beta, ATL1-alpha, ATL1-delta, ATL1-gamma, hRIT1-alpha
Target Information: This gene encodes a C2H2-type zinc finger protein and is closely related to BCL11A, a gene whose translocation may be associated with B-cell malignancies. The specific function of this gene has not yet been determined. Two alternatively spliced transcript variants, which encode distinct isoforms, have been reported. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
