PATZ1 (POZ-, AT hook-, and zinc finger-containing protein 1) is a protein that switches other genes on and off. The public catalogues list it as a fusion partner, and the evidence so far is association rather than a proven role. Tied to Skin cancer and Colorectal cancer. This dossier gathers the 0 products (0 approved), 0 trials, 0 pathways and 0 resistance routes in the corpus that involve it, with external identifiers so it can be joined to UniProt, ChEMBL, Open Targets and the rest of biology.

Biology

Transcriptional regulator that plays a role in many biological processes such as embryogenesis, senescence, T-cell development or neurogenesis. Interacts with the TP53 protein to control genes that are important in proliferation and in the DNA-damage response. Mechanistically, the interaction inhibits the DNA binding and transcriptional activity of TP53/p53. Part of the transcriptional network modulating regulatory T-cell development and controls the generation of the regulatory T-cell pool under homeostatic conditions. Location: Nucleus (UniProt). Locus 22q12.2 (HGNC).
