POZ- AT hook- and zinc finger-containing protein 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the PATZ1 gene.The protein encoded by this gene contains an AT-hook DNA binding motif which usually binds to other DNA binding structures to play an important role in chromatin modeling and transcription regulation. Its Poz domain is thought to function as a site for protein-protein interaction and is required for transcriptional repression and the zinc-fingers comprise the DNA binding domain.
