ZMIZ1 (Zinc finger MIZ domain-containing protein 1) is a protein that switches other genes on and off. In the public catalogues the evidence so far is association rather than a proven role. Tied to Breast cancer, Prostate 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

Acts as a transcriptional coactivator. Increases ligand-dependent transcriptional activity of AR and promotes AR sumoylation. The stimulation of AR activity is dependent upon sumoylation. Also functions as a transcriptional coactivator in the TGF-beta signalling pathway by increasing the activity of the SMAD3/SMAD4 transcriptional complex. Involved in transcriptional activation of a subset of NOTCH1 target genes including MYC. Involved in thymocyte and T cell development. Location: Nucleus, nucleoplasm; Cytoplasm; Nucleus (UniProt). Locus 10q22.3 (HGNC).
