Alternate names for this Gene: NET27|TRAFIP20|ZIMP7|hZIMP7

Gene Summary: ZMIZ2 and ZMIZ1 (MIM 607159) are members of a PIAS (see MIM 603566)-like family of proteins that interact with nuclear hormone receptors. ZMIZ2 interacts with androgen receptor (AR; MIM 313700) and enhances AR-mediated transcription (Huang et al., 2005 [PubMed 16051670]).[supplied by OMIM, May 2010].

Gene is located in Chromosome: 7

Location in Chromosome : 7p13

Description of this Gene: zinc finger MIZ-type containing 2
