ZXDC

Zinc finger, X-linked, duplicated family member C (ZXDC) is a human CIITA-binding protein involved in the activation of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I and II.[1] For binding to occur, ZXDC must form an oligomeric complex with another copy of itself or with ZXDA, a related protein.[2] ZXDC is activated by sumolyation, a post-translational modification.[3]
