Description
VEZF1 (Vascular Endothelial Zinc Finger 1) is a protein-coding gene that encodes a zinc finger transcription factor. It is involved in the regulation of gene expression, particularly in endothelial cells, and plays a role in vascular development and function. The protein binds to specific DNA sequences to modulate transcription.
