Colorectal and thyroid cancers along with a few endometrial, breast, ovarian, urothelial, stomach, testis and pancreatic cancers displayed distinct membranous staining with additional cytoplasmic positivity in some cases. Remaining cancer tissues were negative.

Description
Zinc finger protein 197 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene product belongs to the zinc finger protein superfamily, members of which are regulatory proteins characterized by nucleic acid-binding zinc finger domains. The encoded protein contains 20 tandemly arrayed C2H2-type zinc fingers, a Kruppel-associated box (KRAB) domain, and a SCAN box. This transcript turns over rapidly and contains 3' UTR AUUUA motifs, which are often a hallmark of rapid turnover. It is overexpressed in some thyroid papillary carcinomas. This gene is located in a cluster of zinc finger genes at 3p21. Two alternatively spliced transcripts encoding different isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
