Description

The ZNF711 (zinc finger protein 711) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome X.

ZNF711 is a transcription regulator essential for brain development. It likely acts as a transcription factor that binds to the promoters of target genes and recruits PHF8 histone demethylase, resulting in the activation of genes involved in neuron development, such as KDM5C. It may compete with the transcription factor ARX for the activation of KDM5C expression.

ZNF711 is also known as CMPX1, MRX65, MRX97, XLID97, ZNF4, ZNF5, ZNF6, Zfp711, dJ75N13.1.
