    Program in Molecular Medicine, University of Massachusetts Medical School, Worcester, Massachusetts 01605, USA
    J Biol Chem 281:40330-40. 2006
    ..These changes in subnuclear architecture and cell cycle progression may be caused by transcriptional defects in ZPR1-deficient cells, including decreased histone gene expression...

    Beth Doran
    Program in Molecular Medicine, Department of Cell Biology, and Howard Hughes Medical Institute, University of Massachusetts Medical School, Worcester, MA 01605, USA
    Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 103:7471-5. 2006
    ..We report that ZPR1-deficient mice exhibit axonal pathology and neurodegeneration. These data identify ZPR1 deficiency as a contributing factor in neurodegenerative disorders...

    Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 104:13930-5. 2007
    ..Structural differences between the ZPR1 domains contribute to the observed functional divergence and provide evidence for distinct modalities of interaction with eEF1A and survival motor neuron complexes...
