High impact information on ZNF480

A novel KRAB zinc-finger protein, ZNF480, expresses in human heart and activates transcriptional activities of AP-1 and SRE [1].
In the adult tissues, the expression of ZNF480 is restricted largely to heart, skeletal muscle, pancreas, and placenta [1].
In this study, we have identified and characterized a novel zinc-finger gene named ZNF480 using degenerate primers from an early human embryo heart cDNA library [1].

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of ZNF480

Northern blot analysis indicates that a 4.7kb transcript specific for ZNF480 is expressed only in embryonic heart [1].
