Synonyms | Bmi-1, Pcgf4 |
Function | Component of a Polycomb group (PcG) multiprotein PRC1-like complex, a complex class required to maintain the transcriptionally repressive state of many genes, including Hox genes, throughout development. PcG PRC1 complex acts via chromatin remodeling and modification of histones; it mediates monoubiquitination of histone H2A 'Lys-119', rendering chromatin heritably changed in its expressibility. The complex composed of RNF2, UB2D3 and BMI1 binds nucleosomes, and has activity only with nucleosomal histone H2A. In the PRC1-like complex, regulates the E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase activity of RNF2/RING2 (By similarity). |
Cellular Location | Nucleus {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P35226}. Cytoplasm {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P35226} |
Tissue Location | Detected in most organs with high expression levels in thymus, heart, brain and testis |
