About ZIC4

Cytogenetic location: 3q24 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 3:147,386,046-147,406,543 (from NCBI)

This gene has 17 transcripts (splice variants), 202 orthologues, 14 paralogues and is associated with 2 phenotypes. Low expression observed in reference dataset.

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the ZIC family of C2H2-type zinc finger proteins. Members of this family are important during development, and have been associated with X-linked visceral heterotaxy and holoprosencephaly type 5. This gene is closely linked to the gene encoding Zinc Finger Protein of the cerebellum 1, a related family member on chromosome 3. Heterozygous deletion of these linked genes is involved in Dandy-Walker malformation, which is a congenital cerebellar malformation. Multiple transcript variants have been identified for this gene.
