ZNF341 : zinc finger protein 341
Description
The ZNF341 gene, located on chromosome 19, encodes a zinc finger protein involved in a wide range of cellular processes. Its intricate role stems from its ability to bind to DNA and regulate the expression of other genes, acting as a molecular switch for cellular activity. ZNF341‘s influence extends to various pathways, including cell growth, differentiation, and apoptosis, making it a critical player in maintaining cellular homeostasis. Understanding its functions and dysregulation is crucial for unraveling the complexities of disease development.
