The interaction between the negative cis-element (AldA-NRE) and p97 repressor nuclear protein is a key step in modulating transcription of the human and mouse aldolase A (AldA) gene during the cell cycle and differentiation. In an attempt to clarify the role of transcriptional repression in regulating gene expression, we purified, from HeLa cells, the nuclear protein that specifically binds to the AldA negative regulatory element (NRE). Matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight analysis and examination of protein profiles from the SwissProt database revealed that the previously defined p97 repressor is ZNF224, a zinc finger protein. We demonstrate that ZNF224, a Kruppel-like zinc finger transcription factor, is the repressor protein that specifically binds to the negative cis-element AldA-NRE and affects the AldA-NRE-mediated transcription.
