Function
- may be involved in spermatogenesis interacts with GGN (putative)
- despite its name, does not contain a canonical C2H2-type zinc-finger & no zinc-finger is predicted by any prediction tool
Compartment
- cytoplasmic vesicle (putative)
- associated with vesicular structures (putative)
Alternative splicing
named isoforms=3
Expression
- expressed in heart, brain, placenta, lung, liver, skeletal muscle, kidney & pancreas
- expressed more abundantly in heart, pancreas & skeletal muscle
Pathology
- strongly down-regulated in 40% of primary laryngeal carcinoma & in 6 of 10 various cancer cell lines
