UniProt Comments
Polycomb group (PcG) protein. Catalytic subunit of some PcG multiprotein complex, which methylates 'Lys-27' of histone H3, leading to transcriptional repression of the affected target genes. PcG proteins are not required to initiate repression, but to maintain it during later stages of development .
