RNF141 - ring finger protein 141 Gene

Also Known as ZFP26; RFP141; ZNF230

Species: Homo sapiens

Gene Type: protein coding

Gene ID: 50862

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene contains a RING finger, a motif known to be involved in protein-DNA and protein-protein interactions. Abundant expression of this gene was found in the testicular tissue of fertile men, but was not detected in azoospermic patients. Studies of the mouse counterpart suggest that this gene may function as a testis specific transcription factor during spermatogenesis. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Ubiquitous expression in brain (RPKM 30.2), esophagus (RPKM 28.2) and 25 other tissues.
