Summary
This gene encodes a protein containing a PHD (plant homeodomain) type zinc finger. This gene has been identified in some studies as a candidate gene for asthma. Naturally-occurring readthrough transcription may occur from the upstream SETDB2 (SET domain bifurcated 2) gene to this locus. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2016]
Expression

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
