ZFP42

Gene
ZFP42
Protein
Zinc finger protein 42 homolog
Organism
Homo sapiens
Length
310 amino acids
Function
Involved in the reprogramming of X-chromosome inactivation during the acquisition of pluripotency. Required for efficient elongation of TSIX, a non-coding RNA antisense to XIST. Binds DXPas34 enhancer within the TSIX promoter. Involved in ES cell self-renewal (By similarity).
Similarity
Belongs to the krueppel C2H2-type zinc-finger protein family.
