ZNF488 Gene Summary [Human]
Predicted to enable DNA binding activity and metal ion binding activity. Predicted to be involved in oligodendrocyte development; positive regulation of myelination; and regulation of transcription, DNA-templated. Predicted to act upstream of or within negative regulation of transcription, DNA-templated and positive regulation of oligodendrocyte differentiation. Predicted to be active in nucleus.

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 ZNF488 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
- transcription regulator
- protein binding
- C2H2-type zinc finger
