Component of a Polycomb group (PcG) multiprotein PRC1-like complex, a complex class 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 Lys119, rendering chromatin heritably changed in its expressibility. Involved in sexual development, acting as activator of NR5A1 expression. Source: Recombinant protein corresponding to aa2-90 from human chromobox homolog 2, fused to GST-tag at N-terminal, expressed in E. coli.
