About Cbx2

Summary

Predicted to enable chromatin binding activity and methylated histone binding activity. Predicted to be involved in development of primary sexual characteristics and negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to be located in euchromatin and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be part of PRC1 complex. Predicted to be active in heterochromatin. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in 46,XY sex reversal 5. Orthologous to human CBX2 (chromobox 2).
