Literature on FEZF1

FEZF1 [ENSP00000411145]

Fez family zinc finger protein 1; Transcription repressor. Involved in the axonal projection and proper termination of olfactory sensory neurons (OSN). Plays a role in rostro-caudal patterning of the diencephalon and in prethalamic formation. Expression is required in OSN to cell-autonomously regulate OSN axon projections. Regulates non-cell-autonomously the layer formation of the olfactory bulb development and the interneurons. May be required for correct rostral migration of the interneuron progenitors (By similarity); Belongs to the krueppel C2H2-type zinc-finger protein family.
