ZZZ3

ZZ-type zinc finger-containing protein 3 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ZZZ3 gene.

Model organisms

Model organisms have been used in the study of ZZZ3 function. A conditional knockout mouse line, called Zzz3^{tm1a(EUCOMM)Wtsi} was generated as part of the International Knockout Mouse Consortium program — a high-throughput mutagenesis project to generate and distribute animal models of disease to interested scientists.

Male and female animals underwent a standardized phenotypic screen to determine the effects of deletion. Twenty four tests were carried out on mutant mice and two significant abnormalities were observed. No homozygous mutant embryos were identified during gestation, and therefore none survived until weaning. The remaining tests were carried out on heterozygous mutant adult mice and no further abormal phenotypes were identified.
