======= SPZ1 =======
== Gene Information ==
* **Official Symbol**: SPZ1
* **Official Name**: spermatogenic leucine zipper 1
* **Aliases and Previous Symbols**: N/A
* **Entrez ID**: [[https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/?term=84654|84654]]
* **UniProt**: [[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/Q9BXG8|Q9BXG8]]

== Function Summary ==
* **Entrez Summary**: This gene encodes a bHLH-zip transcription factor which functions in the mitogen-activate protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway. Because of its role in the upregulation of cell proliferation and tumorigenesis, this gene may serve as a target for Ras-induced tumor treatments. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2011].
* **UniProt Summary**: Transcription factor that binds to the DNA sequence 5'- CANNTG-3'(E box) and the G-box motif. May play an important role in the regulation of cell proliferation and differentiation during spermatogenesis (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
No Pfam Domain information is available for this gene.
