Research Backgrounds
Essential for epigenetic silencing by the HUSH (human silencing hub) complex. Recruited by HUSH to target site in heterochromatin, the ATPase activity and homodimerization are critical for HUSH-mediated silencing. Represses germ cell-related genes and L1 retrotransposons in collaboration with SETDB1 and the HUSH complex, the silencing is dependent of repressive epigenetic modifications, such as H3K9me3 mark. Silencing events often occur within introns of transcriptionally active genes, and lead to the down-regulation of host gene expression. During DNA damage response, regulates chromatin remodeling through ATP hydrolysis. Upon DNA damage, is phosphorylated by PAK1, both colocalize to chromatin and induce H2AX expression. ATPase activity is required and dependent of phosphorylation by PAK1 and presence of DNA. Recruits histone deacetylases, such as HDAC4, to promoter regions, causing local histone H3 deacetylation and transcriptional repression of genes such as CA9. Exhibits a cytosolic function in lipogenesis, adipogenic differentiation, and lipid homeostasis by increasing the activity of ACLY, possibly preventing its dephosphorylation.
Phosphorylated by PAK1 at Ser-739 upon DNA damage. Phosphorylation is required for ATPase activity and recruitment to damaged chromatin.
Nucleus. Cytoplasm>Cytosol. Chromosome. Nucleus matrix.
Note: Mainly located in the nucleus (PubMed:20225202). Upon phosphorylation at Ser-739, recruited to damaged chromatin (PubMed:23260667).
Highly expressed in smooth muscle, pancreas and testis.
Homodimerizes upon ATP-binding and dissociate upon ATP hydrolysis; homodimerization is required for gene silencing. Interacts with HDAC4. Interacts with ACLY. Interacts with TASOR and MPHOSPH8; the interactions associate MORC2 with the HUSH complex which recruits MORC2 to heterochromatic loci.
