GLI2
17 February 2005GLI2 encodes a protein which belongs to the C2H2-type zinc finger protein subclass of the Gli family (GLIs).
Members of the GLIs subclass are characterized as transcription factors which bind DNA through zinc finger motifs. These motifs contain conserved H-C links.
Gli family zinc finger proteins (GLIs) are mediators of Sonic hedgehog (Shh) signaling and they are implicated as potent oncogenes in the embryonal carcinoma cell.
The protein Gli2 encoded by this gene localizes to the (...) -

GATA4
14 April 2004The GATA-binding proteins (GATAs) are a group of structurally related transcription factors that control gene expression and differentiation in a variety of cell types.
Members of the GATAs family of DNA-binding proteins recognize a consensus sequence known as the ’GATA’ motif, which is an important cis-element in the promoters of many genes. All GATA-binding proteins contain 1 or 2 zinc finger motifs of the distinctive form CXNCX(17)CNXC.
