Entrez Summary: This gene encodes a protein that belongs to the zinc finger Kruppel family of transcriptional regulators, whose members are thought to function in normal and abnormal cell growth and differentiation. Hypermethylation of this gene is associated with the recurrence of non muscle invasive bladder cancer. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2014].
UniProt Summary: May be involved in transcriptional regulation.
