Zfpm1 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable RNA polymerase II-specific DNA-binding transcription factor binding activity and transcription corepressor activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including heart development; hemopoiesis; and regulation of gene expression. Predicted to act upstream of or within myeloid cell differentiation and regulation of chemokine production. Predicted to be part of transcription repressor complex. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Orthologous to human ZFPM1 (zinc finger protein, FOG family member 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 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 Zfpm1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.

  • transcription regulator
  • SET (Su(var)3-9, Enhancer-of-zeste, Trithorax) domain superfamily
  • transcription co-repressor
