UniProt functional annotation for Q9Y2Y4

UniProt code: Q9Y2Y4.

Organism: Homo sapiens (Human).
Taxonomy: Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo.
 
Function: DNA-binding protein that binds to the to a 5'-TGTACAGTGT-3' core sequence. May function as a transcriptional transactivator and transcriptional repressor. Probably exerts its repressor effect by preventing GATA3 from binding to DNA. May play a role in regulating the differentiation and activation of helper T-cells (By similarity). {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10572087}.
 
Subunit: Homodimer (via PTB domain). Interacts with the N-terminal of FANCC. Interacts with ZBTB16. Interacts with GATA3 (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
Subcellular location: Nucleus {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10572087}. Note=Located in nuclear speckles.
Tissue specificity: Predominantly expressed in testis. Some isoforms are ubiquitously expressed. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10544010}.
Domain: The C-terminal zinc finger domain functions as a transcriptional transactivator. {ECO:0000250}.
Domain: The BTB (POZ) domain possesses repressor activity. {ECO:0000250}.
Similarity: Belongs to the krueppel C2H2-type zinc-finger protein family. {ECO:0000305}.
