Zinc finger protein 41 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ZNF41 gene.{{cite journal | vauthors = Franze A, Archidiacono N, Rocchi M, Marino M, Grimaldi G | title = Isolation and expression analysis of a human zinc finger gene (ZNF41) located on the short arm of the X chromosome | journal = Genomics | volume = 9 | issue = 4 | pages = 728–36 |date=Jul 1991 | pmid = 2037297 | doi =10.1016/0888-7543(91)90367-N }}{{cite web | title = Entrez Gene: ZNF41 zinc finger protein 41| url = https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?Db=gene&Cmd=ShowDetailView&TermToSearch=7592}}

This gene product is a likely zinc finger family transcription factor. It contains KRAB-A and KRAB-B domains that act as transcriptional repressors in related proteins, and multiple zinc finger DNA binding motifs and finger linking regions characteristic of the Kruppel family. This gene is part of a gene cluster on chromosome Xp11.23. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described, however, the full-length nature of only some of them is known.
