Transcription regulator required to maintain maternal and paternal gene imprinting, a process by which gene expression is restricted in a parent of origin-specific manner by epigenetic modification of genomic DNA and chromatin, including DNA methylation. Acts by controlling DNA methylation during the earliest multicellular stages of development at multiple imprinting control regions (ICRs) (PubMed:15070898, PubMed:18854139, PubMed:23059534, PubMed:30602440). Acts together with ZNF445, but ZFP57 plays the predominant role in imprinting maintenance. In contrast, in humans, ZNF445 seems to be the major factor early embryonic imprinting maintenance (PubMed:30602440). Required for the establishment of maternal methylation imprints at SNRPN locus. Acts as a transcriptional repressor in Schwann cells. Binds to a 5'-TGCCGC-3' consensus sequence and recognizes the methylated CpG within this element (PubMed:15070898, PubMed:18854139, PubMed:23059534).

The protein Zfp57 also known as Zinc finger protein 57 plays a significant mechanical role in the regulation of gene expression. It acts as a transcriptional repressor by binding to DNA methylated sites using its zinc finger domains to recognize specific DNA sequences. The molecular mass of Zfp57 is approximately 58 kDa. Zfp57 is generally expressed in early embryonic stem cells and in the developing mouse embryo indicating a role in early development.
Zfp57 maintains DNA methylation at imprinted genes essential for genomic imprinting stability. This protein forms a complex with other proteins including TRIM28 (also known as KAP1) which facilitates its function in establishing and maintaining DNA methylation patterns. By interacting with these partners Zfp57 ensures proper transmission of epigenetic marks across generations.
The activity of Zfp57 associates with the epigenetic regulation pathway particularly playing a role in the maintenance of DNA methylation imprints. It directly interacts with methyl-DNA binding proteins such as MeCP2 which are important in interpreting methylation signals to adjust chromatin conformation. The proper function of Zfp57 within these pathways is necessary for maintaining normal genomic architecture.
Alterations in Zfp57 function could lead to problems like transient neonatal diabetes mellitus and related imprinting disorders. These conditions arise when there is improper methylation imprint maintenance due to Zfp57 malfunction. Moreover the protein connects to other factors like NLRP7 influencing the risk of imprinting disorders that affect normal growth and development during infancy.
