The gene ZSCAN21 (zinc finger and SCAN domain containing 21) encodes a transcription factor that transcriptionally regulates the gene SNCA that encodes α-synuclein in primary neuronal cultures. α-Synuclein is a presynaptic neuronal protein that is associated with Parkinson disease (PD). Therefore, the ZSCAN21 gene may serve as a potential target in the treatment of PD.
General description
The gene ZSCAN21 (zinc finger and SCAN domain containing 21), also referred to as NY-REN-21, encodes a C2H2 type multi-finger protein that contains an N-terminal SCAN (SRE-ZBP, CTfin51, AW-1 (ZNF174), and Number 18 cDNA or ZnF20) domain and a predicted coil at the central region. The SCAN domain has the ability to form homodimers.
