ZNF124 Gene Summary [Human]

This gene encodes a protein with an amino-terminal KRAB-A box and multiple repeated Kruppel-type (C2H2) zinc finger motifs at its carboxy terminus. The encoded protein may function as a transcription factor. Expression of this gene is increased after vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) stimulation in human leukemia cell lines and results in inhibition of apoptotic cell death induced by irradiation or exposure to etoposide. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding distinct proteins. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 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 ZNF124 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • Zinc finger, C2H2 type
  • Zinc-finger double domain
  • protein binding
  • KRAB (Kruppel-associated box) domain -A box
  • DNA binding
