Q76L83

MORC3

Q14149

FUNCTION: Putative Polycomb group (PcG) protein. PcG proteins act by forming multiprotein complexes, which are required to maintain the transcriptionally repressive state of homeotic genes throughout development. PcG proteins are not required to initiate repression, but to maintain it during later stages of development. They probably act via methylation of histones, rendering chromatin heritably changed in its expressibility (By similarity). Involved in transcriptional regulation mediated by ligand-bound nuclear hormone receptors, such as peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARG). Acts as coactivator for PPARG and enhances its adipocyte differentiation-inducing activity; the function seems to involve differential recruitment of acetylated and methylated histone H3. {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21047783}.FUNCTION: Nuclear factor which forms MORC3-NBs (nuclear bodies) via an ATP-dependent mechanism (PubMed:20501696). Sumoylated MORC3-NBs can also associate with PML-NBs (PubMed:20501696). Recruits TP53 and SP100 to PML-NBs, thus regulating TP53 activity (PubMed:17332504). Binds RNA in vitro (PubMed:11927593). May be required for influenza A transcription during viral infection (PubMed:26202233). Histone methylation reader which binds to non-methylated (H3K4me0), monomethylated (H3K4me1), dimethylated (H3K4me2) and trimethylated (H3K4me3) 'Lys-4' on histone H3 (PubMed:26933034). The order of binding preference is H3K4me3 > H3K4me2 > H3K4me1 > H3K4me0 (PubMed:26933034). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11927593, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17332504, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20501696, ECO:0000269|PubMed:26202233, ECO:0000269|PubMed:26933034}.
