motifs/domains
  • 13 C2H2-type zinc fingers
  • a KRAB domain exhibiting repressing activity, repressor domain derived from the proteins Egr-1, Oct2A and Dr1 (Thiel 2001)
  • individual domains differentially contributing to zinc-dependent target DNA binding (Lange 1995)

    basic FUNCTION
  • may function as a repressor or silencer protein , and most likely exerts its repressing activity upon
    • zinc-dependent binding to DNA
  • may be involved in proper spermatogenesis by
    • repressing the expression of genes unnecessary or incompatible with the maintenance of a haploid
