Human PLZF is a 74kD nuclear protein that belongs to the POK family of transcriptional repressors. It is a 673aa protein that contains an N-terminal BTB domain, followed by an acidic domain, a proline-rich region and a C-terminal zinc-finger domain. PLZF forms homodimers with RARa and LAZ3 with its zinc-finger region. Alternate splice forms exist which are tissue-specific and show a deletion of either the BTB domain, the acidic region, or the proline-rich region. Human PLZF shares 96%, 97%, 96% and 96% aa identity with rat, mouse, canine, and bovine PLZF, respectively.
