About ZNF217

Enables DNA-binding transcription repressor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Located in mitochondrion and nuclear speck. Part of histone deacetylase complex.
