Generic protein structure example

Zinc finger protein 165 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ZNF165 gene.[1][2]

Function

This gene encodes a member of the Kruppel family of zinc finger proteins. Members of this DNA-binding protein family act as transcriptional regulators. This gene is located within a cluster of zinc finger family members. The encoded protein may play a role in spermatogenesis.[2]

Interactions

Zinc finger protein 165 has been shown to interact with Ewing sarcoma breakpoint region 1[3] and DVL2.[3]
