Zinc finger-mediated protein interactions modulate Ikaros activity, a molecular control of lymphocyte development.
The EMBO journal - 1 Oct 1996
Sun L, Liu A, Georgopoulos K
Abstract excerpt
The Ikaros gene, an essential regulator of lymphocyte differentiation, encodes, by means of differential splicing, protein isoforms with a distinct number of Kruppel-type zinc fingers organized in two domains. Deletion of the N-terminal zinc finger domain responsible for the sequence-specific DNA binding of the Ikaros proteins results in an early and complete arrest in lymphocyte development in homozygous mutant...
