About CASZ1

Cytogenetic location: 1p36.22 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 1:10,636,604-10,796,646 (from NCBI)

This gene has 9 transcripts (splice variants), 210 orthologues and is associated with 1 phenotype. Broad expression in skin (RPKM 7.7), prostate (RPKM 5.8) and 22 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a zinc finger transcription factor. The encoded protein may function as a tumor suppressor, and single nucleotide polymorphisms in this gene are associated with blood pressure variation. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants that encode different protein isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2012]
