UniProt functional annotation for Q9NZL3

UniProt code: Q9NZL3.

Organism: Homo sapiens (Human).
Taxonomy: Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo.
 
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. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20587513}.
 
Subunit: Interacts with WT1. Interacts with DEPDC1A. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12239212, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20587513}.
Subcellular location: Nucleus {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12239212, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20587513, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23665872}. Note=Colocalizes with DEPDC1A at the nucleus.
Tissue specificity: Ubiquitous. Mainly expressed in fetal tissues. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12239212}.
Similarity: Belongs to the krueppel C2H2-type zinc-finger protein family. {ECO:0000305}.
