    basic FUNCTION
  • acting as a transcriptional corepressor
  • may specifically inhibit gene expression when recruited to promoter regions by sequence specific DNA-binding proteins such as BCL6
  • associated with histone deacetylase (HDAC) activity
  • transcriptional corepressor, involved in negative gene regulation through associations with several protein complexes including Class II histone deacetylases (HDACs)
  • is contributor to spermatogenesis
  • CELLULAR PROCESS nucleotide, transcription, regulation
