Genomic expansion and clustering of ZAD-containing C2H2 zinc-finger genes in Drosophila.

EMBO reports - 1 Dec 2002

Chung Ho-Ryun, Schäfer Ulrich, Jäckle Herbert, Böhm Siegfried

Abstract excerpt

C2H2 zinc-finger proteins (ZFPs) constitute the largest family of nucleic acid binding factors in higher eukaryotes. In silico analysis identified a total of 326 putative ZFP genes in the Drosophila genome, corresponding to approximately 2.3% of the annotated genes. Approximately 29% of the Drosophila ZFPs are evolutionary conserved in humans and/or Caenorhabditis elegans. In addition, approximately 28% of the...
