ID:ZN224_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Zinc finger protein 224; AltName: Full=Bone marrow zinc finger 2; Short=BMZF-2; AltName: Full=Zinc finger protein 233; AltName: Full=Zinc finger protein 255; AltName: Full=Zinc finger protein 27; AltName: Full=Zinc finger protein KOX22; FUNCTION: May be involved in transcriptional regulation as a transcriptional repressor. The DEPDC1A-ZNF224 complex may play a critical role in bladder carcinogenesis by repressing the transcription of the A20 gene, leading to transport of NF-KB protein into the nucleus, resulting in suppression of apoptosis of bladder cancer cells. SUBUNIT: Interacts with WT1. Interacts with DEPDC1A. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus. Note=Co-localizes with DEPDC1A at the nucleus. TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Ubiquitous. Mainly expressed in fetal tissues. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the krueppel C2H2-type zinc-finger protein family. SIMILARITY: Contains 18 C2H2-type zinc fingers. SIMILARITY: Contains 1 KRAB domain.
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
