Function Summary
  • Entrez Summary: This gene encodes a protein which contains a hinge region domain found in members of the SMC (structural maintenance of chromosomes) protein family. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2011].
  • UniProt Summary: Required for maintenance of X inactivation in females and hypermethylation of CpG islands associated with inactive X. Involved in a pathway that mediates the methylation of a subset of CpG islands slowly and requires the methyltransferase DNMT3B (By similarity). Required for DUX4 silencing in somatic cells (PubMed:23143600). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q6P5D8, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23143600}.
