Transcriptional repressor that binds CpG islands in promoters where the DNA is methylated at position 5 of cytosine within CpG dinucleotides.
Binding is abolished by the presence of 7-mG that is produced by DNA damage by methylmethanesulfonate (MMS).
Acts as transcriptional repressor and plays a role in gene silencing by recruiting AFT7IP, which in turn recruits factors such as the histone methyltransferase SETDB1.
Probably forms a complex with SETDB1 and ATF7IP that represses transcription and couples DNA methylation and histone 'Lys-9' trimethylation.
Isoform 1 and isoform 2 can also repress transcription from unmethylated promoters.
