Function Required for genome-wide de novo methylation and is essential for the establishment of DNA methylation patterns during development. DNA methylation is coordinated with methylation of histones. It modifies DNA in a non-processive manner and also methylates non-CpG sites. May preferentially methylate DNA linker between 2 nucleosomal cores and is inhibited by histone H1. Plays a role in paternal and maternal imprinting. Required for methylation of most imprinted loci in germ cells. Acts as a transcriptional corepressor for ZBTB18. Recruited to trimethylated 'Lys-36' of histone H3 (H3K36me3) sites. Can actively repress transcription through the recruitment of HDAC activity. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16357870}.
Subcellular Location Nucleus {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12145218}. Cytoplasm {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12145218}. Note=Accumulates in the major satellite repeats at pericentric heterochromatin. {ECO:0000250}.
Tissue Specificity Highly expressed in fetal tissues, skeletal muscle, heart, peripheral blood mononuclear cells, kidney, and at lower levels in placenta, brain, liver, colon, spleen, small intestine and lung. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10325416}.
