Zbtb14 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Enables DNA-binding transcription repressor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Acts upstream of or within heart development and kidney development. Predicted to be located in aggresome; cytosol; and nucleolus. Predicted to be active in nucleoplasm. Is expressed in central nervous system; cerebral cortex ventricular layer; cortical plate; and ureter. Orthologous to human ZBTB14 (zinc finger and BTB domain containing 14).

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 mouse Zbtb14 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
