This gene belongs to a family of Sp1 related genes that
encode transcription factors that regulate transcription by binding
to consensus GC- and GT-box regulatory elements in target genes.
This protein contains a zinc finger DNA-binding domain and several
transactivation domains, and has been reported to function as a
bifunctional transcription factor that either stimulates or
represses the transcription of numerous genes. Transcript variants
encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene, and
one has been reported to initiate translation from a non-AUG (AUA)
start codon. Additional isoforms, resulting from the use of
alternate downstream translation initiation sites, have also been
noted. A related pseudogene has been identified on chromosome 13.1) Yamaguchi, K., et al. Biochem. J. 430(1):107-117(2010)
