Summary

Enables DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and sequence-specific double-stranded DNA binding activity. Involved in positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to be active in nucleus. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Forensic Context

A study in human leukocytes from severe burn patients identified the ZNF76 as a top sustained increasing gene (SIG) with expression rising from the healthy state through the late recovery phase, classifying it as a biomarker for burn recovery and noting its role as a transcription factor whose up-regulation may be a driver for inducing an immunosuppressive state post-burn [Xu et al. DOI:10.1159/000493451].
