Gene information for ZSCAN2 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID54993
Official gene symbolZSCAN2
Full namezinc finger and SCAN domain containing 2
Aliases,FLJ20595,ZFP29,ZNF854,
Gene summaryThe protein encoded by this gene contains several copies of zinc finger motif, which is commonly found in transcriptional regulatory proteins. Studies in mice show that this gene is expressed during embryonic development, and specifically in the testis in adult mice, suggesting that it may play a role in regulating genes in germ cells. Alternative splicing of this gene results in several transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq]
