Rabbit Anti-ZNF318/FITC Conjugated antibody
background:
ZNF318 is a 2279 amino acid endocrine regulatory protein that localizes to the nucleus. Highly expressed in testis, ovaries and kidneys, ZNF318 is a co-repressor of androgen receptor (AR)-mediated transcriptional activation and is thought to regulate transcription during spermatogenesis. ZNF318 interacts with the N-terminal domain of AR and contains two matrin-type zinc fingers. Two isoforms of ZNF318, designated TZF and TZF-L, are produced due to alternative splicing events. Each of these splice variants are thought to have unique roles in transcriptional regulation. While the TZF isoform functions as a repressor of AR-mediated transcriptional activation, the TZF-L isoform is thought to enhance AR-mediated transcriptional activation.
Function:
ZNF318 encodes a nuclear protein with a zinc finger motif of the Cys2-His2 type that is a novel corepressor of androgen receptor.
Subunit:
Interacts with the N-terminal domain of AR.
Subcellular Location:
Nuclear.
Tissue Specificity:
Expressed in endocrine tissue.
Post-translational modifications:
Phosphorylated upon DNA damage, probably by ATM or ATR.
Similarity:
Contains 2 matrin-type zinc fingers.
