ZINC FINGER PROTEIN C2H2-150


HGNC Approved Gene Symbol: ZNF212

Cytogenetic location: 7q36.1   Genomic coordinates (GRCh38) : 7:149,239,651-149,255,606 (from NCBI)


TEXT

Description

Zinc finger proteins (ZNFs), which bind nucleic acids, perform many key functions, the most important of which is regulating transcription. See ZNF91 (603971) for general information on ZNFs.


Cloning and Expression

Becker et al. (1997) reported the cloning of a C2H2-type, or Kruppel-related (see 602187), zinc finger protein from a human hippocampus cDNA library. The partial cDNA, designated C2H2-150, encodes a predicted 356-amino acid protein, with 4 C-terminal C2H2 zinc finger motifs and an N-terminal Kruppel-associated box (KRAB).


Mapping

By PCR of somatic cell hybrids, Becker et al. (1997) mapped the gene encoding C2H2-150 to 7q36.1.
