function:Transcriptional repressor. May promote methylation of histone H3 on 'Lys-27' by the PRC2/EED-EZH2 complex.,similarity:Contains 2 PHD-type zinc fingers.,subcellular location:Localizes specifically to the promoters of numerous target genes.,subunit:Interacts with CHMP1 (By similarity). Interacts with the PRC2 complex.,tissue specificity:Highest levels in heart, skeletal muscle, and pancreas, lower levels in brain, placenta, lung, liver and kidney.,
Nucleus. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, microtubule organizing center, centrosome. Localizes specifically to the promoters of numerous target genes. Localizes to double-strand breaks (DSBs) sites following DNA damage. Co-localizes with NEK6 in the centrosome.
Highest levels in heart, skeletal muscle, and pancreas, lower levels in brain, placenta, lung, liver and kidney.
