Zinc finger protein Aiolos, also known as Ikaros family zinc finger protein 3, is a protein encoded in humans by the IKZF3 gene.[5][6][7]

Function

[edit]

This gene encodes a member of the Ikaros family of zinc-finger proteins. Three members of this protein family (Ikaros, Aiolos and Helios) are hematopoietic-specific transcription factors involved in the regulation of lymphocyte development. This gene product is a transcription factor that is important in the regulation of B lymphocyte proliferation and differentiation. Both Ikaros and Aiolos can participate in chromatin remodeling. The regulation of gene expression in B lymphocytes by Aiolos is complex as it appears to require the sequential formation of Ikaros homodimers, Ikaros/Aiolos heterodimers, and Aiolos homodimers. At least six alternative transcripts encoding different isoforms have been described.[7]

Interactions

[edit]

IKZF3 has been shown to interact with BCL2-like 1[8] and HRAS.[9]
