{"type": "root", "children": [{"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\nThe collected studies predominantly describe the diverse functions of the zinc finger transcription factor MAZR (also known as PATZ1) – a member of the POZ/BTB family – in regulating gene expression programs during lymphocyte development. In these works, MAZR/PATZ1 is shown to contribute to the epigenetic programming of T‐cell lineage differentiation by modulating coreceptor expression (e.g. CD8 and ThPOK) in thymocytes, and by interacting with other transcriptional regulators during the maturation of conventional and innate-like T cells.
