General annotation (Comments)

Function

E3 SUMO-protein ligase which facilitates SUMO1 conjugation by UBE2I. Component of the Polycomb group (PcG) multiprotein PRC1 complex, a complex 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. Ref.6 Ref.8 Ref.10

Pathway

Protein modification; protein sumoylation.

Subunit structure

Interacts with histone H3-K9Me3 By similarity. Component of chromatin-associated class II PcG repressive complex 1 (PRC1/hPRC-H) at least composed of PCGF2/RNF110, BMI1/PCGF4, CBX2/M33, CBX4/PC2, CBX8/PC3, PHC1, PHC2, PHC3, SCMH1, RING1 and RNF2/RING2. Interacts with SUV39H1 and HIPK2.

Subcellular location

Nucleus. Ref.6 Ref.10

Tissue specificity

Ubiquitous.

Post-translational modification

Phosphorylated on Thr-495 by HIPK2 upon DNA damage; which enhances E3 SUMO-protein ligase activity and promotes sumoylation on Lys-492. Ref.10 Ref.9

Sequence similarities

Contains 1 chromo domain.
