Gene: ZNF460

Alternate names for this Gene: HZF8|ZNF272

Gene Summary: Zinc finger proteins, such as ZNF272, interact with nucleic acids and have diverse functions. The zinc finger domain is a conserved amino acid sequence motif containing 2 specifically positioned cysteines and 2 histidines that are involved in coordinating zinc. Kruppel-related proteins form 1 family of zinc finger proteins. See ZFP93 (MIM 604749) for additional information on zinc finger proteins.[supplied by OMIM, May 2004]. Sequence Note: This RefSeq record was created from transcript and genomic sequence data to make the sequence consistent with the reference genome assembly. The genomic coordinates used for the transcript record were based on transcript alignments. ##Evidence-Data-START## Transcript exon combination :: DC410337.1, SRR1660809.67449.1 [ECO:0000332] RNAseq introns :: single sample supports all introns SAMEA1968968, SAMEA2144835 [ECO:0000348] ##Evidence-Data-END##
