Zinc finger protein
A zinc finger protein is a DNA-binding protein domain comprised of zinc fingers ranging from two in the Drosophila regulator ADR1, the more common three in mammalian Sp1 up to nine in [TFIIIA|TFIIIA]. They occur in nature as the part of transcription factors conferring DNA sequence specificity as the DNA-binding domain.
