Zinc finger protein 778 (ZNF778)

Target
ZNF778
Molecular classification
Transcription factor, Zinc finger protein (Krueppel C2H2-type)
01

Overview

Zinc finger protein 778 is a transcription factor belonging to the Krueppel C2H2-type zinc-finger protein family, characterized by a KRAB domain and eighteen C2H2-type zinc fingers[1][3][5]. It regulates gene expression through sequence-specific DNA binding, is implicated as a candidate gene in autism and cognitive impairment associated with the 16q24.3 microdeletion syndrome, and may play roles in cancer biology and immunity based on functional knockout models[1][3][7]. Evidence for drug interactions, clinical targeting, or use as a biomarker in therapeutic settings is lacking in current literature.
