Summary
This gene encodes a core component of the polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) that also includes, at least, embryonic ectoderm development protein (EED) and enhancer of zeste homolog 1 or 2 (EZH1 or EZH2). Through the methyltransferase activity of EZH1 or EZH2, the PRC2 complex methylates Lys9 and Lys27 of histone 3 and Lys26 of histone 1, leading to recruitment of the PRC1 complex, histone 2A ubiquitylation and transcriptional repression of the target genes. This gene product is essential for the activity and integrity of the PRC2 complex, and is required for X chromosome inactivation, stem cell maintenance and differentiation. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2009]

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.
