About Zscan21

Summary

Enables DNA binding activity. Involved in male meiosis I and spermatogenesis. Acts upstream of or within positive regulation of transcription, DNA-templated. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including early conceptus; genitourinary system; gut gland; liver and biliary system; and nervous system. Orthologous to human ZSCAN21 (zinc finger and SCAN domain containing 21). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
