Clonality
polyclonal
Description
Acts as transcriptional repressor and plays a role in gene silencing. Does not bind to DNA by itself (. Binds to DNA with a preference for sites containing methylated CpG dinucleotides (in vitro). Binds to a lesser degree DNA containing unmethylated CpG dinucleotides (). Recruits histone deacetylases and DNA methyltransferases.Hendrich B., Mol. Cell.
