Also known as: Ab2-008; RGD1305133; AABR07018038.3
Summary: Predicted to enable chromatin binding activity; histone reader activity; and methylated histone binding activity. Predicted to be involved in negative regulation of gene expression via chromosomal CpG island methylation; negative regulation of single stranded viral RNA replication via double stranded DNA intermediate; and positive regulation of DNA methylation-dependent heterochromatin formation. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including cytosol; heterochromatin; and nuclear lumen. Predicted to be part of nucleosome. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Orthologous to human MPHOSPH8 (M-phase phosphoprotein 8). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

What's a GeneRIF?

These results indicate that MPP8 could have a role for silencing genes that are associated with differentiation of the testis and the mesoderm by interacting with epigenetic repressors modules such as the PRC1 complex.
Title: Physical interaction between MPP8 and PRC1 complex and its implication for regulation of spermatogenesis.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
