Zinc finger domain

edit
 
This depiction shows the location of the two predicted protein domains.
 
Result of local sequence alignment- the amino acids found in the zinc finger domain are highlighted in different color
 
The three amino acids which are coordinated to the zinc ion.

Two domains were predicted by the program BLIMPS[6] to exist in the protein of which one of the domains contains a zinc finger domain.

Zinc finger domains assist the binding of the protein to nucleic acids. This points to a direct interaction of CAD28476 with DNA during meiosis. By comparing CAD28476 with a related zinc finger protein[7] in a local sequence alignment using LALIGN,[8] the amino acids His359, Cys381 and Cys384 could be attributed to the zinc finger domain. This zinc finger structure is uncommon in the way that it involves one histidine instead of two.

Expression

edit

Microarray data show that CAD28476 is highly expressed in tissue where meiosis occurs like in testis and ovaries. Moreover, it is also highly expressed in the brain around the hypothalamus.

Transcriptional regulation

edit
 
Listed binding sites for different transcription factors, the bold transcription factors are very likely to be involved in regulation.

The analysis of the promoter region (tools on the page rVista .[9] were used) shows that there are several transcription factor binding sites localized in conserved regions . It is very likely that the transcription factor Ets-1 which belongs to the ETS transcription factor family and its core binding factor CBF are involved in regulation of transcription since they both have independent binding sites.

Interacting proteins

edit

There were two proteins predicted[10] which interact with CAD28476.
