HIVEP2 HIVEP zinc finger 2

Gene ID: 3097, updated on 3-Apr-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: SHN2; ZAS2; MBP-2; MIBP1; MRD43; ZNF40B; HIV-EP2

Summary

This gene encodes a member of a family of closely related, large, zinc finger-containing transcription factors. The encoded protein regulates transcription by binding to regulatory regions of various cellular and viral genes that maybe involved in growth, development and metastasis. The protein contains the ZAS domain comprised of two widely separated regions of zinc finger motifs, a stretch of highly acidic amino acids and a serine/threonine-rich sequence.
