含有标准重复锌指结构域的转录调控蛋白被认为参与了正常和异常的细胞增殖和分化ZNF161是一种C2H2型锌指蛋白（Koyano Nakagawa等人，1994【PubMed 8035792】）锌指蛋白的一般信息见MIM 603971。[由OMIM提供，2008年9月]
Transcriptional regulatory proteins containing tandemly repeated zinc finger domains are thought to be involved in both normal and abnormal cellular proliferation and differentiation. ZNF161 is a C2H2-type zinc finger protein (Koyano-Nakagawa et al., 1994 [PubMed 8035792]). See MIM 603971 for general information on zinc finger proteins.[supplied by OMIM, Sep 2008]
