SCRT1
Transcriptional repressor that binds E-box motif CAGGTG. Can modulate the action of basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factors, critical for neuronal differentiation. Belongs to the snail C2H2-type zinc-finger protein family. Brain specific. Note: This description may include information from UniProtKB.
