ZBTB26

protein-coding

zinc finger and BTB domain containing 26, the group of Zinc fingers C2H2-type|BTB domain containing

Gene summary

Enables identical protein binding activity and sequence-specific double-stranded DNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II; regulation of cytokine production; and regulation of immune system process. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Predicted to be active in nucleoplasm. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type

Statistics based on transcript NM_020924.4. Only rare variants are included.

We include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, MANE Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equal to 1. Click a count to filter the variants table below.

Slight differences between displayed counts and ClinVar may occur due to a different transcript/consequence chosen by our variant effect predictor, or because we classify Benign/Likely benign as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic as Likely pathogenic.
