Protein Structure

UniProt Annotation

Function

Acts as a transcriptional repressor. Increases DNMT3B- mediated repressive transcriptional activity when DNMT3B is tethered to DNA. May link molecule between DNMT3B and other co- repressor proteins (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.

Subcellular Localization

Nucleus {ECO:0000255PROSITE- ProRule:PRU00108, ECO:0000269PubMed:17056598}. Note=Colocalized in the nucleus with DNMT3B. {ECO:0000250}.

Disease Associations

Tissue Specificity

Widely expressed with highest levels in brain. {ECO:0000269PubMed:8713137}.
