About ZIC2

Cytogenetic location: 13q32.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 13:99,981,784-99,986,765 (from NCBI)

This gene has 5 transcripts (splice variants), 220 orthologues, 14 paralogues and is associated with 8 phenotypes. Biased expression in brain (RPKM 3.1) and testis (RPKM 0.7).

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the ZIC family of C2H2-type zinc finger proteins. This protein functions as a transcriptional repressor and may regulate tissue specific expression of Dopamine Receptor D1. Expansion of an alanine repeat in the C-terminus of the encoded protein and Other mutations in this gene cause holoprosencephaly type 5. Holoprosencephaly is the most common structural anomaly of the human brain. A polyhistidine tract polymorphism in this gene may be associated with increased risk of neural tube defects. This gene is closely linked to a gene encoding zinc finger protein of the cerebellum 5, a related family member on chromosome 13. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2016]
