This Suz12 antibody was produced from a rabbit immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 496-530 amino acids from the mouse protein.
Polycomb group (PcG) protein. Component of the PRC2/EED- EZH2 complex, which methylates Lys-9 (H3K9me) and Lys-27 (H3K27me) of histone H3, leading to transcriptional repression of the affected target gene. The PRC2/EED-EZH2 complex may also serve as a recruiting platform for DNA methyltransferases, thereby linking two epigenetic repression systems (By similarity). Genes repressed by the PRC2/EED-EZH2 complex include HOXA7, HOXB6 and HOXC8.
