Description
Product Characteristics:
Chromatin reader that specifically recognizes and binds histone H3.3 trimethylated at 'Lys-36' (H3.3K36me3) and regulates RNA polymerase II elongation. Does not bind other histone H3 subtypes (H3.1 or H3.2) (By similarity). Colocalizes with highly expressed genes and functions as a transcription corepressor by modulating RNA polymerase II at the elongation stage. Acts as a tumor-suppressor by repressing a transcriptional program essential for tumor cell growth.
Subcellular location: Nucleus
Synonyms: BS69, BRAM1, MRD30, Zinc finger MYND domain-containing protein 11, Adenovirus 5 E1A-binding protein, Bone morphogenetic protein receptor-associated molecule 1, Protein BS69, ZMYND11
Target Information: The protein encoded by this gene was first identified by its ability to bind the adenovirus E1A protein. The protein localizes to the nucleus. It functions as a transcriptional repressor, and expression of E1A inhibits this repression. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified.
