  • 7 splicing 1925 55.5 511 - Yu (2010)
  • isoform c
  • 5 - 868 20.7 188 in the liver and kidneys Yu (2010)
  • lacks exons 2–4 and part of exon 5, with G-patch domain, the nuclear localization signal, and the C-terminal coiled-coil domain
  • also localized in the nucleus, suggesting that sZIP may function, similar to ZIP, primarily in the nucleus
  • potentially acting to antagonize the transcription repression activity of ZGPAT

  • primarily localized in the nucleus (Li 2010)
  • basic FUNCTION
  • acting as a mediator of cellular transformation
  • recruiting the NuRD complex to EGFR promoter and represses EGFR transcription (Li 2009)
  • inhibits cell proliferation and supresses breast carcinogenesis (Li 2009)
  • transcription repressor and potential tumor suppressor (Li 2009)
  • functions as a transcription repressor (Yu 2010)
  • CELLULAR PROCESS nucleotide, transcription, regulation
