Function

Zinc-finger transcription repressor factor. Plays a critical role to maintain the identity of epithelial lineages by suppressing epithelial-to mesenchymal transition mainly through the up-regulation of ZEB1 expression. Positively regulates neuronal differentiation. Suppresses cell cycling and terminal differentiation of keratinocytes by directly repressing MYC and NOTCH1. {ECO:0000269PubMed:15225875, ECO:0000269PubMed:16423343, ECO:0000269PubMed:23319585, ECO:0000269PubMed:24735878, ECO:0000269PubMed:24735879}.

Subcellular Localization

Nucleus {ECO:0000269PubMed:9468311}.

Disease Associations

Tissue Specificity

Expressed highly in testis, specifically in spermatocytes. Expressed also in skin and at lower levels in the ovary. {ECO:0000269PubMed:12213202, ECO:0000269PubMed:15225875, ECO:0000269PubMed:9468311}.
