Gene: ZSCAN2

Alternate names for this Gene: ZFP29|ZNF854

Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene contains several copies of zinc finger motif, which is commonly found in transcriptional regulatory proteins. Studies in mice show that this gene is expressed during embryonic development, and specifically in the testis in adult mice, suggesting that it may play a role in regulating genes in germ cells. Alternative splicing of this gene results in several transcript variants encoding different isoforms.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 15

Location in Chromosome : 15q25.2

Description of this Gene: zinc finger and SCAN domain containing 2

Type of Gene: protein-coding
