spans the region between amino acids 86 and 707 of ZNF224
having 19 zinc-finger domains of ZNF224, lacks the KRAB A domain and possesses a KRNB located at its amino terminus, which may function as a transregulatory domain
potential role in RNA processing together with WT1
involvement in a specific molecular pathway, RNA maturation and processing
interacts and co-localizes with both WT1 isoforms, with a preference for the (+KTS) isoform, suggesting a role for this interaction in RNA maturation and post-transcriptional control
ZNF224 and ZNF255 have a distinct pattern of distribution within the cell and display a specific pattern of interaction with different molecular partners.

direct interaction between the arginine methyltransferase PRMT5 and ZNF224 is required for repression of aldolase A gene transcription
WT1-associating protein
binding to the cis-negative regulatory element of aldolase A (AldA-NRE), and transcriptional repressor of the human aldolase A gene
PRMT5 was demonstrated to play a crucial role in the transcriptional ZNF224 repressor complex
acts in fine tuning of WT1-dependent control of gene expression, acting as a co-activator of WT1 in the regulation of proapoptotic genes and suppressing WT1 mediated trans-activation of antiapoptotitc genes
