Gene nameSUZ12
Protein namePolycomb protein SUZ12 (Chromatin precipitated E2F target 9 protein) (ChET 9 protein) (Joined to JAZF1 protein) (Suppressor of zeste 12 protein homolog)
SUZ12 polycomb repressive complex 2 subunit
SynonymsJJAZ1
KIAA0160
CHET9
DescriptionFUNCTION: Polycomb group (PcG) protein. Component of the PRC2 complex, which methylates 'Lys-9' (H3K9me) and 'Lys-27' (H3K27me) of histone H3, leading to transcriptional repression of the affected target gene . The PRC2 complex may also serve as a recruiting platform for DNA methyltransferases, thereby linking two epigenetic repression systems . Genes repressed by the PRC2 complex include HOXC8, HOXA9, MYT1 and CDKN2A . .
