Background
The members of the zinc fingers and homeoboxes gene family are nuclear homodimeric transcriptional repressors that interact with the A subunit of nuclear factor-Y (NF-YA) and contain two C2H2-type zinc fingers and five homeobox DNA-binding domains. This gene encodes member 2 of this gene family. In addition to forming homodimers, this protein heterodimerizes with member 1 of the zinc fingers and homeoboxes family.

Function
function:Acts as a transcriptional repressor.,similarity:Belongs to the ZHX family.,similarity:Contains 2 C2H2-type zinc fingers.,similarity:Contains 4 homeobox DNA-binding domains.,subunit:Forms homodimers. Also forms heterodimers with ZHX1 and ZHX3. Heterodimerization with ZHX1 is not necessary for repressor activity. Interacts with NFYA.,tissue specificity:Ubiquitously expressed.,
