Gene:
zinc finger protein 36, C3H type-like 2
Gene ID:
200220
Symbol:
ZFP36L2
Species:
1000
Description:
This gene is a member of the TIS11 family of early response genes. Family members are induced by various agonists such as the phorbol ester TPA and the polypeptide mitogen EGF. The encoded protein contains a distinguishing putative zinc finger domain with a repeating cys-his motif. This putative nuclear transcription factor most likely functions in regulating the response to growth factors.
