Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 79797
Gene name Zinc finger protein 408
Gene symbol ZNF408
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
EVR6PRDM17RP72
Chromosome 11
Chromosome location 11p11.2
Summary The protein encoded by this gene contains ten tandem zinc fingers and an N-terminal SET domain, so it is likely a DNA binding protein that interacts with other proteins. In adults, the encoded protein is expressed most highly in retina. Consequently, defe
