Regulator which is able to repress transcription, possibly via its interaction with a multiprotein chromatin remodeling complex that modifies the chromatin. Its interaction with BRCA2 suggests that it may play a central role in the DNA repair function of BRCA2
Tissue Specificity
A synthetic peptide corresponding to residues near the C-term of human EMSY isoform 1 was used as immunogen.
Cellular Localization
Nucleus. Note=Localizes to DNA damage markers in irradiated cells, suggesting that it participates in DNA repair process
