ZNF431

This gene encodes a member of the Krueppel C2H2-type zinc-finger family of proteins. The encoded protein may negatively regulate transcription of target genes, including the hedgehog signaling pathway receptor patched 1, by interacting with histone deacetylases. Mutations in this gene may be associated with non-syndromic facial clefting in human patients.
