About This Section
| Entrez Gene summary for SPZ1: 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 mayserve as a target for Ras-induced tumor treatments. (provided by RefSeq, Oct 2011) UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: SPZ1_HUMAN, Q9BXG8Function: Transcription factor that binds to the DNA sequence 5'-CANNTG-3'(E box) and the G-box motif. May play animportant role in the regulation of cell proliferation and differentiation during spermatogenesis (By similarity) Gene Wiki entry for SPZ1
