Anti-ZN711

This gene encodes a zinc finger protein of unknown function. It bears similarity to a zinc finger protein which acts as a transcriptional activator. This gene lies in a region of the X chromosome which has been associated with mental retardation. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008], Protein function: Transcription regulator required for brain development (PubMed:20346720). Probably acts as a transcription factor that binds to the promoter of target genes and recruits PHF8 histone demethylase, leading to activated expression of genes involved in neuron development, such as KDM5C (PubMed:20346720, PubMed:31691806). May compete with transcription factor ARX for activation of expression of KDM5C (PubMed:31691806). [The UniProt Consortium] Recommended dilutions: WB 1:500-2000. Cellular localization: Nucleus .
