Background
This gene encodes a nucleic-acid binding protein with seven zinc-finger domains. The protein has a preference for binding single stranded DNA and RNA. The protein functions in cap-independent translation of ornithine decarboxylase mRNA, and may also function in sterol-mediated transcriptional regulation. A CCTG expansion from <30 repeats to 75-11000 repeats in the first intron of this gene results in myotonic dystrophy type 2. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2016],
Function
disease:Defects in CNBP are the cause of myotonic dystrophy 2 (DM2) [MIM:602668]; also known as proximal myotonic myopathy (PROMM). DM2 is an autosomal dominant neurodegenerative disorder characterized by myotonia. DM2 is caused by a CCTG expansion (mean approximately 5000 repeats) located in intron 1 of the CNBP gene.,function:Single stranded DNA-binding protein, with specificity to the sterol regulatory element (SRE). Involved in sterol-mediated repression.,similarity:Contains 7 CCHC-type zinc fingers.,tissue specificity:Present in all tissues examined.,
