Cancer cells showed moderate to strong cytoplasmic staining with a granular pattern. For example several cases of pancreatic and lung cancers as well as lymphomas and melanomas showed strong staining.
GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
ZNF397 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
MGC13250, ZNF47, ZSCAN15
Description
Zinc finger protein 397 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene encodes a protein with a N-terminal SCAN domain, and the longer isoform contains nine C2H2-type zinc finger repeats in the C-terminal domain. The protein localizes to centromeres during interphase and early prophase, and different isoforms can repress or activate transcription in transfection studies. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. Additional variants have been described, but their biological validity has not been determined.
