Zinc finger protein 638

Protein information

  • Protein ID: Q14966
  • Protein Name : Zinc finger protein 638
  • Gene : ZNF638
  • Organism : Homo sapiens
  • Status : reviewed
  • Function : Transcription factor that binds to cytidine clusters in double-stranded DNA (PubMed:8647861 PubMed:30487602). Plays a key role in the silencing of unintegrated retroviral DNA: some part of the retroviral DNA formed immediately after infection remains unintegrated in the host genome and is transcriptionally repressed (PubMed:30487602). Mediates transcriptional repression of unintegrated viral DNA by specifically binding to the cytidine clusters of retroviral DNA and mediating the recruitment of chromatin silencers such as the HUSH complex SETDB1 and the histone deacetylases HDAC1 and HDAC4 (PubMed:30487602). Acts as an early regulator of adipogenesis by acting as a transcription cofactor of CEBPs (CEBPA CEBPD and/or CEBPG) controlling the expression of PPARG and probably of other proadipogenic genes such as SREBF1 (By similarity). May also regulate alternative splicing of target genes during adipogenesis (By similarity).
