ZNF154 Gene Summary [Human]
This gene encodes a protein that belongs to the zinc finger Kruppel family of transcriptional regulators, whose members are thought to function in normal and abnormal cell growth and differentiation. Hypermethylation of this gene is associated with the recurrence of non muscle invasive bladder cancer. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2014]

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in human ZNF154 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
