Description
THAP12 encodes a protein containing a THAP domain, which is a zinc-finger DNA-binding domain found in a family of proteins involved in transcriptional regulation, cell cycle control, and apoptosis. The protein may function as a nuclear factor and has been implicated in cellular stress responses and tumorigenesis.

Protein Summary
THAP12 is a 275-amino acid protein with a THAP domain at the N-terminus, which mediates sequence-specific DNA binding. It localizes to the nucleus and is thought to regulate gene expression. The protein also contains a coiled-coil region that may facilitate protein-protein interactions. Its exact biological role remains under investigation, but it is implicated in cell growth control.
