About Zfx

Summary

Predicted to enable chromatin insulator sequence binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including gamete generation; ovarian follicle development; and parental behavior. Predicted to be located in nucleolus and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be active in chromosome. Is expressed in several structures, including 4-cell stage embryo; genitourinary system; ileum; liver; and spleen. Orthologous to several human genes including ZFX (Zinc Finger Protein X-linked).
