Summary
This gene encodes a member of the Kruppel-like family of transcription factors. The zinc finger protein is a transcriptional activator, and functions as a tumor suppressor. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene, some of which are implicated in carcinogenesis. [provided by RefSeq, May 2009]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.

    Status: REVIEWED

    Description
    Transcript Variant: This variant (B), also known as sv2, uses an alternate splice site in the central coding region that results in a frameshift, compared to variant A. The resulting isoform (B) has a shorter and distinct C-terminus, compared to isoform A.

    Status: REVIEWED

    Description
    Transcript Variant: This variant (C), also known as sv3, lacks an alternate exon in the 3' coding region that results in a frameshift, compared to variant A. The resulting isoform (C) has a shorter and distinct C-terminus, compared to isoform A.

RNA

  1. NR_027653.2 RNA Sequence

    Status: REVIEWED

    Description
    Transcript Variant: This variant (D), also known as sv1, uses an alternate splice site, compared to variant A. This variant is represented as non-coding because the use of the 5'-most expected translational start codon, as used in variant A, renders the transcript a candidate for nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD).

The following Reference Sequences have been suppressed. Explain

  1. NM_001008490.1: Suppressed sequence

    Description
    NM_001008490.1: This RefSeq was suppressed because the 3'UTR structure is not strongly supported and it renders the transcript a candidate for nonsense-mediated decay (NMD).
