KLF8 - Kruppel-like factor 8This gene encodes a protein which is a member of the Sp/KLF family of transcription factors. Members of this family contain a C-terminal DNA-binding domain with three Kruppel-like zinc fingers. The encoded protein is thought to play an important role in the regulation of epithelial to mesenchymal transition, a process which occurs normally during development but also during metastasis. A pseudogene has been identified on chromosome 16. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2009]
ZXDA - zinc finger, X-linked, duplicated AThis gene encodes one of two duplicated zinc finger genes on chromosome Xp11. This gene is the telomeric copy; GeneID 158586 ZXDB is the more centromeric copy. The two genes have 98% nucleotide sequence similarity, and the predicted proteins contain 10 tandem zinc finger motifs. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2009]
ZXDB - zinc finger, X-linked, duplicated BThe ZXDB gene is one of a pair of duplicated zinc finger genes on chromosome Xp11.21 (Greig et al., 1993 [PubMed 8268913]); see also ZXDA (MIM 300235).[supplied by OMIM, Jul 2010]
