General annotation (Comments)
| Function | Required for genome-wide de novo methylation and is essential for the establishment of DNA methylation patterns during development. DNA methylation is coordinated with methylation of histones. May preferentially methylates nucleosomal DNA within the nucleosome core region. May function as transcriptional co-repressor by associating with CBX4 and independently of DNA methylation. Seems to be involved in gene silencing. In association with DNMT1 and via the recruitment of CTCFL/BORIS, involved in activation of BAG1 gene expression by modulating dimethylation of promoter histone H3 at H3K4 and H3K9. Function as transcriptional corepressor by associating with ZHX1 By similarity. Ref.3 Ref.4 Ref.11 Ref.12 Ref.13 Ref.16 |
| Catalytic activity | S-adenosyl-L-methionine + DNA = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + DNA containing 5-methylcytosine. |
| Enzyme regulation | Activated by binding to the regulatory factor DNMT3L. Ref.10 |
| Subunit structure | Interacts with CBX4, DNMT1, DNMT3A, SETDB1, UBE2I9, UBL1 and ZHX1 By similarity. Interacts with SUV39H1 and BAZ2A/TIP5. Interacts with the PRC2/EED-EZH2 complex. Interacts with UHRF1. Ref.5 Ref.6 Ref.7 Ref.13 Ref.14 Ref.16 |
| Subcellular location | Nucleus. Note: Accumulates in the major satellite repeats at pericentric heterochromatin. Ref.9 |
| Developmental stage | Expressed in almost all blastocysts at embryonic day 3.0 (E3.0). Preferentially expressed in the trophectoderm (TE) in E3.5 and polar TE in E4.0 blastocysts. In E4.5 embryos, expressed in the polar TE and some inner cell mass (ICM) embryonic lineage cells. In post-implantation embryo at E5.5, expressed in the epiblast (embryonic lineage) derived from the ICM. Highly expressed, at E7.5, in the embryonic ectoderm, neural ectoderm, and chorionic ectoderm; a weak expression is also detected in mesodermal and endodermal cells. At later stages, the expression is detected predominantly in the forebrain and eyes but weakly throughout the embryo. Ref.3 Ref.15 |
| Domain | The PWWP domain is essential for targeting to pericentric heterochromatin. |
| Post-translational modification | Sumoylated By similarity. |
| Sequence similarities | Belongs to the C5-methyltransferase family. Contains 1 ADD domain. Contains 1 GATA-type zinc finger. Contains 1 PHD-type zinc finger. Contains 1 PWWP domain. |
