Summary
Predicted to enable chromatin binding activity and methylated histone binding activity. Predicted to be involved in development of primary sexual characteristics and negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to be located in euchromatin and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be part of PRC1 complex. Predicted to be active in heterochromatin. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in 46,XY sex reversal 5. Orthologous to human CBX2 (chromobox 2).

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
