Function
- transcriptional regulator involved in developmental processes (putative)
- may act as a transcriptional repressor
- interacts (via homeobox domain) with APBB1 (via PID domain 1) (putative)
Structure
- belongs to the teashirt C2H2-type Zn+2-finger protein family
- contains 5 C2H2-type Zn+2 fingers
- contains 1 homeobox DNA-binding domain
Compartment
nucleus (probable)
Alternative splicing
named isoforms=2
Expression
- expressed in brain
Pathology
- expression is diminished in elderly subjects with Alzheimer disease (post-mortem studies)
- defects in TSHZ1 are the cause of congenital aural atresia
