IDBG-41820 (ZFHX3)

Protein Structure

UniProt Annotation

Function

Transcriptional repressor. It inhibits the enhancer element of the AFP gene by binding to its AT-rich core sequence. Regulator of myoblasts differentiation through the binding to the AT-rich sequence of MYF6 promoter and promoter repression. Down- regulates the MUC5AC promoter in gastric cancer. {ECO:0000269PubMed:11312261, ECO:0000269PubMed:17330845}.

Subcellular Localization

Nucleus.

Disease Associations

Tissue Specificity

Not found in normal gastric mucosa but found in gastric carcinoma cells (at protein level). {ECO:0000269PubMed:17330845}.
