About Cbx3

Summary

Enables transcription cis-regulatory region binding activity. Acts upstream of or within negative regulation of transcription, DNA-templated. Located in chromocenter; chromosome, centromeric region; and nuclear envelope. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; embryo ectoderm; gonad; gut; and retina nuclear layer. Orthologous to human CBX3 (chromobox 3).
