zinc finger,
a loop of a transcription factor that is stabilized by a zinc atom linked to four carbon atoms in the protein. It is an important step in the cloning and sequencing of human general transcription factors because individual proteins appear to be involved in the regulation of transcription and in RNA transport. Zinc Finger A small tertiary protein structural motif of higher organisms, in which parts of a protein fold around a zinc molecule, acting as a hook to attach activator proteins to DNA; the ZF motif is present in many proteins that regulate expression of eukaryotic genes—e.g., proto-oncogenes, Wilms’ tumour gene, growth signal receptors Want to thank TFD for its existence?

[FIGURE 2 OMITTED] We next matched genes in these three pathways with the 163 genes and identified 12 candidate genes: B-cell CLL/lymphoma 6 (BCL6), IL1[alpha] (ILIA), IL8, PTGS2, DTR, chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 3 (CXCL3), promyelocytic leukemia (PML), sine oculis homeobox homolog 1 (Drosophila) (SIX1), tumor necrosis factor (TNF), [alpha]-induced protein 3 (TNFAIP3), Zn finger and BTB domain containing 1 (ZBTB1), Zn finger protein 44 (KOX 7) (ZNF44), and Zn finger protein 450 (ZNF450). |
