ZNF287

Chr 17

zinc finger protein 287

Also known as: ZKSCAN13, ZSCAN45

NCBI Gene: 57336ENSG00000141040UniProt: Q9HBT7

This gene encodes a member of the krueppel family of zinc finger proteins, suggesting a role as a transcription factor. Its specific function has not been determined. This gene is located near the Smith-Magenis syndrome region on chromosome 17. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Population Genetics & Constraint

gnomAD v4 — loss-of-function & missense intolerance

gnomAD
Moderate LoF intolerance
LoF Constraint?LOEUF (Loss-of-function Observed/Expected Upper bound Fraction) is the upper bound of the 90% CI for LoF OE — the preferred gnomAD v4 metric. Lower = more intolerant to LoF. LOEUF < 0.35 = highly constrained.

pLI 0.583
Z-score 4.22
OE 0.21 (0.12–0.40)
Moderately constrained

More LoF-intolerant than ~75% of genes

Missense Constraint?Missense Z-score: standard deviations fewer missense variants observed vs. expected. Z > 3.09 (p < 0.001) = gene does not tolerate missense variation. OE missense < 0.6 is also considered constrained.
