ID:ZN480_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Zinc finger protein 480; FUNCTION: Involved in transcriptional regulation as an activator. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus. TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed in fetal heart, heart, skeletal muscle, pancreas and placenta. DEVELOPMENTAL STAGE: Expressed in heart as early as the 24th week of gestation. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the krueppel C2H2-type zinc-finger protein family. SIMILARITY: Contains 12 C2H2-type zinc fingers. SIMILARITY: Contains 1 KRAB domain. CAUTION: It is uncertain whether Met-1 or Met-20 is the initiator. A 'GT' insertion (rs59214675) allows to extend the sequence in the N-terminus. The majority of mRNAs do not have this insertion and the corresponding protein sequences start at Met-20.
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
