Background:enhancer of zeste 1 polycomb repressive complex 2 subunit(EZH1) Homo sapiens EZH1 is a component of a noncanonical Polycomb repressive complex-2 (PRC2) that mediates methylation of histone H3 (see MIM 602812) lys27 (H3K27) and functions in the maintenance of embryonic stem cell pluripotency and plasticity (Shen et al., 2008 [PubMed 19026780]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2009],
Function:catalytic activity:S-adenosyl-L-methionine + histone L-lysine = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + histone N(6)-methyl-L-lysine.,function:Polycomb group (PcG) protein. Catalytic subunit of the PRC2/EED-EZH1 complex, which methylates 'Lys-27' of histone H3, leading to transcriptional repression of the affected target gene. Able to mono-, di- and trimethylate 'Lys-27' of histone H3 to form H3K27me1, H3K27me2 and H3K27me3, respectively. Required for embryonic stem cell derivation and self-renewal, suggesting that it is involved in safeguarding embryonic stem cell identity. Compared to EZH1-containing complexes, it is less abundant in embryonic stem cells and plays a less critical role in forming H3K27me3, which is required for embryonic stem cell identity and proper differentiation.,similarity:Belongs to the histone-lysine methyltransferase family. EZ subfamily.,similarity:Contains 1 SET domain.,s
Subcellular Location:Nucleus . Colocalizes with trimethylated 'Lys-27' of histone H3.
Expression: Brain,Hippocampus,Uterus,
