Cell Line Properties
Target Information
Gene Function
Component of the Polycomb group (PcG) multiprotein PRC1 complex, a complex 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. In the PRC1 complex, it is required to stimulate the E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase activity of RNF2/RING2.
Sequence Similarities
Contains 1 RING-type zinc finger.
Post-translational Modifications
Monoubiquitinated (By similarity). May be polyubiquitinated; which does not lead to proteasomal degradation.
