Function | Binds CpG islands in promoters where the DNA is methylated at position 5 of cytosine within CpG dinucleotides. Binds hemimethylated DNA as well. Recruits histone deacetylases and DNA methyltransferases. Acts as transcriptional repressor and plays a role in gene silencing. Functions as a scaffold protein, targeting GATAD2A and GATAD2B to chromatin to promote repression. May enhance the activation of some unmethylated cAMP-responsive promoters. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10471499, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10947852, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12665568, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16415179, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24307175, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9774669}. |
Subcellular Location | Nucleus {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12183469, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9774669}. Note=Nuclear, in discrete foci. Detected at replication foci in late S phase. |
Tissue Specificity | Highly expressed in brain, heart, kidney, stomach, testis and placenta. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10050851}. |
