Preferred Label : ZIM2 wt Allele;
NCIt synonyms : Zinc Finger, Imprinted 2 wt Allele; ZNF656;
NCIt definition : Human ZIM2 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 19q13.4 and is approximately
66 kb in length. This allele, which encodes zinc finger imprinted 2 protein, may be
involved in the regulation of transcription.;
NCIt note : The ZIM2 gene ORF overlaps with that of PEG3. These two genes are paternally expressed
and share multiple 5' exons and a common promoter. Alternative splicing events connect
their shared 5' exons either with the remaining 4 exons unique to ZIM2, or with the
remaining 2 exons unique to PEG3. (EntrezGene);
