Zfp64 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable zinc ion binding activity. Predicted to be involved in mesenchymal cell differentiation and positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to act upstream of or within positive regulation of mRNA splicing, via spliceosome. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Orthologous to human ZFP64 (ZFP64 zinc finger protein). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2025]

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 rat Zfp64 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
