Protein function (UniProt)

PR domain zinc finger protein 12

Transcriptional regulator necessary for the development of nociceptive neurons, playing a key role in determining the nociceptive lineage from neural crest cell progenitors. Initiates neurogenesis and activates downstream pro-neuronal transcription factors, such as NEUROD1, BRN3A, and ISL1, specifically within nociceptive neurons, while repressing non-nociceptor cell fates. Essential for the proper function of nociceptors in adults, influencing both their excitability and their gene expression, thereby impacting how these neurons respond to various pain stimuli
