DESCRIPTION

Also known as PHC1_HUMAN, PHC1, EDR1, PH1. 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. Required for proper control of cellular levels of GMNN expression. Homodimer. Component of a PRC1-like complex (PubMed:12167701, PubMed:19636380, PubMed:21282530). Interacts with RNF2 and CBX7 (By similarity). Interacts with PHC2, PHC2 and BMI1 (By similarity).
