ZBTB24

Description

ZBTB24, also known as ZNF217, is a zinc finger transcription factor that plays a crucial role in regulating gene expression during development and in adult tissues. It binds to specific DNA sequences, controlling the transcription of target genes involved in various cellular processes, including cell proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. ZBTB24 is implicated in various diseases, highlighting its importance in maintaining cellular homeostasis.
