Genetic features and genomic targets of human KRAB-Zinc Finger Proteins

2023-02-27

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Krüppel-associated box (KRAB) domain-containing zinc finger proteins (KZFPs) are one of the largest groups of transcription factors encoded by tetrapods, with 378 members in human alone. KZFP genes are often grouped in clusters reflecting amplification by gene and segment duplication since the gene family first emerged more than 400 million years ago. Previous work has revealed that many KZFPs r...
