  • transcriptional regulation of eukaryotic genes is very important for the normal expression of genes, and this regulation process is usually completed by transcriptional regulatory factors.
  • Transcriptional regulators are involved in the body to determine in which tissues and developmental stages genes begin transcription. If a gene encoding such a protein is mutated, not only the gene itself cannot be expressed normally, but also many genes regulated by it cannot be normally transcribed and expressed. There are a large number of different types of transcriptional regulatory factors in higher organisms. These regulatory factors, in combination with various genetic materials DM and RM, regulate the transcription and expression of related genetic materials under the synergistic action of other related proteins.
  • transcription regulation factors People have cloned a variety of different transcription regulation factors from various organisms, such as various members of the zinc finger protein family. In addition to the conserved DM-binding domain, the protein sequences of these transcription factors also contain transcription activation regions. Transcriptional activation regions are mainly acidic amino acid types, glutamine-rich and proline-rich. These transcriptional activation regions interact with components of a universal transcriptional mechanism to regulate the transcription and expression of genes in the body. In 1998, Di Zhang et al. Cloned a new human transcriptional regulatory factor ZFM1 protein isoform B3 from humans, which has similar structural characteristics to the aforementioned transcription factors.

  • the protein is usually closely related to the occurrence of some related metabolic and developmental disorders, nervous system diseases, endocrine disorders and related tissue tumors and cancers in the body. It can also be used to diagnose and treat the various related diseases mentioned above.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un nouveau polypeptide, un isomère humain ZFM1 25.63 du facteur de régulation et de transcription, et un polynucléotide codant ce polypeptide ainsi qu'un procédé d'obtention de ce polypeptide par des techniques recombinantes d'ADN. L'invention concerne en outre les applications de ce polypeptide dans le traitement de maladies, notamment de troubles du métabolisme des protéines, de malformations apparaissant lors du développement de l'embryon et de diverses tumeurs communes affectant les tissus. L'invention concerne aussi l'antagoniste agissant contre le polypeptide et son action thérapeutique ainsi que les applications de ce polynucléotide codant le isomère humain ZFM1 25.63 du facteur de régulation et de transcription.
