ZNF423

该基因编码的蛋白是一种核蛋白，属于Kruppel样C2H2锌指蛋白家族在不同的信号传导途径中使用不同的锌指作为dna结合转录因子发挥作用。因此，认为该基因在发育过程中可能具有多种信号转导作用。该基因的突变与肾诺氏症-14和joubert综合征-19相关。另外，已经发现该基因编码不同亚型的剪接转录变体[由RefSeq提供，2012年10月]
The protein encoded by this gene is a nuclear protein that belongs to the family of Kruppel-like C2H2 zinc finger proteins. It functions as a DNA-binding transcription factor by using distinct zinc fingers in different signaling pathways. Thus, it is thought that this gene may have multiple roles in signal transduction during development. Mutations in this gene are associated with nephronophthisis-14 and Joubert syndrome-19. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2012]
