ZINC FINGER PROTEIN 97; ZNF97


Cytogenetic location: Chr.19     Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 19:1-58,617,616


TEXT

Description

The ZNF97 gene encodes a zinc finger protein of the KRAB (Kruppel-associated box) subfamily (Bellefroid et al., 1993). See ZNF91 (603971) for general information on ZNFs.


Cloning and Expression

Using probes derived from a ZNF91 cDNA to screen a pool of human chromosome 19-specific cosmids that had hybridized to a degenerate oligonucleotide corresponding to the H/C link region, Bellefroid et al. (1993) isolated the genes of several distinct ZNF91 subfamily members, including ZNF97. They found that ZNF91-related genes are widely expressed in human tissues, with the highest expression in T-lymphoid cells.


Mapping

Bellefroid et al. (1993) mapped YAC clones containing ZNF91-related genes by FISH and found that most of these genes, including ZNF97, are clustered in 19p13.1-p12.
