%X Charm production has been measured with the ZEUS detector in deep inelastic ep scattering at HERA. The measurement is based on the full reconstruction of the decay chain

%X  D<sup>*</sup> → D<sup>0</sup>  π, D<sup>0</sup> → K π and exploits the full HERA II statistics with integrated luminosity <i>L</i> = 357 \textpb<sup>−1</sup> . Differential cross-sections have been measured. The kinematic range is 1.5 GeV   <   P<sub>t</sub>(D*)   <   20  GeV, |η(D*)|   <   1.5, 5   <   Q<sup>2</sup>   <   1000  GeV<sup>2</sup> and 0.02   <   y   <   0.7. The observed cross sections were extrapolated to the full P<sub>t</sub>(D*) and η(D*) range in order to determine the open-charm contribution, F<sub>2</sub><sup>c―c</sup>(x,Q<sup>2</sup>) to the proton structure function F<sub>2</sub>.
