Enables

This protein enables 10 target(s):

TargetCategoryDefinition
transcription corepressor bindingmolecular functionBinding to a transcription corepressor, a protein involved in negative regulation of transcription via protein-protein interactions with transcription factors and other proteins that negatively regulate transcription. Transcription corepressors do not bind DNA directly, but rather mediate protein-protein interactions between repressing transcription factors and the basal transcription machinery. [GOC:krc]
p53 bindingmolecular functionBinding to one of the p53 family of proteins. [GOC:hjd]
protein bindingmolecular functionBinding to a protein. [GOC:go_curators]
methyltransferase activitymolecular functionCatalysis of the transfer of a methyl group to an acceptor molecule. [ISBN:0198506732]
zinc ion bindingmolecular functionBinding to a zinc ion (Zn). [GOC:ai]
protein-lysine N-methyltransferase activitymolecular functionCatalysis of the transfer of a methyl group from S-adenosyl-L-methionine to the epsilon-amino group of a lysine residue in a protein substrate. [PMID:12054878]
histone H3K9 methyltransferase activitymolecular functionCatalysis of the reaction: S-adenosyl-L-methionine + histone H3 L-lysine (position 9) = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + histone H3 N6-methyl-L-lysine (position 9). This reaction is the addition of up to three methyl groups to the lysine residue at position 9 of the histone H3 protein. [GOC:ai]
histone H3K27 methyltransferase activitymolecular functionCatalysis of the reaction: S-adenosyl-L-methionine + histone H3 L-lysine (position 27) = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + histone H3 N6-methyl-L-lysine (position 27). This reaction is the addition of a methyl group to the lysine residue at position 27 of the histone H3 protein. [GOC:ai]
C2H2 zinc finger domain bindingmolecular functionBinding to a C2H2-type zinc finger domain of a protein. The C2H2 zinc finger is the classical zinc finger domain, in which two conserved cysteines and histidines co-ordinate a zinc ion. [GOC:BHF, GOC:mah, Pfam:PF00096]
histone H3K9me2 methyltransferase activitymolecular functionCatalysis of the reaction: N6,N6-dimethyl-L-lysyl9-[histone H3] + S-adenosyl-L-methionine = H+ + N6,N6,N6-trimethyl-L-lysyl9-[histone H3] + S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine. This reaction is the addition of a single methyl group to the dimethylated lysine residue at position 9 of histone H3, producing histone H3K9me3. [RHEA:60280]

Located In

This protein is located in 3 target(s):

TargetCategoryDefinition
nucleuscellular componentA membrane-bounded organelle of eukaryotic cells in which chromosomes are housed and replicated. In most cells, the nucleus contains all of the cell's chromosomes except the organellar chromosomes, and is the site of RNA synthesis and processing. In some species, or in specialized cell types, RNA metabolism or DNA replication may be absent. [GOC:go_curators]
nucleoplasmcellular componentThat part of the nuclear content other than the chromosomes or the nucleolus. [GOC:ma, ISBN:0124325653]
nuclear bodycellular componentExtra-nucleolar nuclear domains usually visualized by confocal microscopy and fluorescent antibodies to specific proteins. [GOC:ma, PMID:10330182]
