Gene namePRDM8
Protein namePR domain zinc finger protein 8 (EC 2.1.1.-) (PR domain-containing protein 8)
PRDM8 protein
PR/SET domain 8
SynonymsPFM5
DescriptionFUNCTION: Probable histone methyltransferase, preferentially acting on 'Lys-9' of histone H3 (By similarity). Involved in the control of steroidogenesis through transcriptional repression of steroidogenesis marker genes such as CYP17A1 and LHCGR (By similarity). Forms with BHLHE22 a transcriptional repressor complex controlling genes involved in neural development and neuronal differentiation (By similarity). In the retina, it is required for rod bipolar and type 2 OFF-cone bipolar cell survival (By similarity). .
