CBX5 encodes a highly conserved nonhistone protein, which is a member of the heterochromatin protein family.
The chromobox 5 is enriched in the heterochromatin and associated with centromeres.
The protein has a single N-terminal chromodomain which can bind to histone proteins via methylated lysine residues, and a C-terminal chromo shadow-domain (CSD) which is responsible for the homodimerization and interaction with a number of chromatin-associated nonhistone proteins.
The encoded product is involved in the formation of functional kinetochore through interaction with essential kinetochore proteins.
The gene has a pseudogene located on chromosome 3.
Multiple alternatively spliced variants, encoding the same protein, have been identified.
