PHF2 PHD finger protein 2

Gene ID: 5253, updated on 5-Mar-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: GRC5; KDM7C; JHDM1E; CENP-35

Summary

This gene encodes a protein which contains a zinc finger-like PHD (plant homeodomain) finger, distinct from other classes of zinc finger motifs, and a hydrophobic and highly conserved domain. The PHD finger shows the typical Cys4-His-Cys3 arrangement. PHD finger genes are thought to belong to a diverse group of transcriptional regulators possibly affecting eukaryotic gene expression by influencing chromatin structure.
