High impact information on ZFR

Identification of ZFR, an ancient and highly conserved murine chromosome-associated zinc finger protein [1].
Outside of the zinc fingers, ZFR shares a region that is highly conserved between several RNA binding proteins containing copies of the double-stranded RNA binding motif [1].
Immunohistochemistry and confocal microscopy were used to show that ZFR is highly expressed during meiosis I in males and females and is chromosome associated [1].
Our recent work has led to the identification of four novel proteins that recognize AR zinc-finger region (ZFR) both in vivo and in vitro [2].
