Assignment to chromosome 12q24.33, gene organization and splicing of the human KRAB/FPB containing zinc finger gene ZNF84.
FISH analysis was used to assign the human ZNF84 gene to chromosome 12q24.33, a region associated with recurrent breakpoints and allelic loss in several human cancers. In this report we show that the ZNF84 coding region is organized in four exons; two are dedicated to encoding the KRAB/FPB-A and KRAB/FPB-B modules, the remaining exons encode the N-terminal amino acids and C-terminal array of zinc finger units, respectively.
