Background
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. Promotes histone H3 trimethylation at 'Lys-9' (H3K9me3). Binds to histone H3 trimethylated 'Lys-9' (H3K9me3) or at 'Lys-27' (H3K27me3). May possibly also bind trimethylated lysine residues in other proteins (in vitro). Binds non-coding, single-stranded RNA. Regulator of cellular lifespan by maintaining the repression of CDKN2A, but not by inducing telomerase activity.
