Anti-ZNF16

The protein encoded by this gene contains multiple tandem zinc finger motifs. The encoded protein is involved in the differentiation of erythroid and megakaryocytic cells. This gene is located in a cluster of related genes on chromosome 8 encoding zinc finger proteins. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2012], Protein function: Acts as a transcriptional activator. Promotes cell proliferation by facilitating the cell cycle phase transition from the S to G2/M phase. Involved in both the hemin- and phorbol myristate acetate (PMA)-induced erythroid and megakaryocytic differentiation, respectively. Also plays a role as an inhibitor of cell apoptosis.
