• function: Component of the HUSH complex, a multiprotein complex that mediates epigenetic repression (PubMed:26022416, PubMed:28581500). The HUSH complex is recruited to genomic loci rich in H3K9me3 and is required to maintain transcriptional silencing by promoting recruitment of SETDB1, a histone methyltransferase that mediates further deposition of H3K9me3, as well as MORC2 (PubMed:26022416, PubMed:28581500). Also represses L1 retrotransposons in collaboration with MORC2 and, probably, SETDB1, 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 (PubMed:29211708). The HUSH complex is also involved in the silencing of unintegrated retroviral DNA by being recruited by ZNF638: some part of the retroviral DNA formed immediately after infection remains unintegrated in the host genome and is transcriptionally repressed (PubMed:30487602). Plays a crucial role in early embryonic development (By similarity). Involved in the organization of spindle poles and spindle apparatus assembly during zygotic division (By similarity). Plays an important role in maintaining epiblast fitness or potency (By similarity).
  subunit: Component of the HUSH complex; at least composed of TASOR, PPHLN1 and MPHOSPH8 (PubMed:26022416). Interacts with MORC2; the interaction associateS MORC2 with the HUSH complex which recruits MORC2 to heterochromatic loci (PubMed:28581500). Interacts with ZNF638; leading to recruitment of the HUSH complex to unintegrated retroviral DNA (PubMed:30487602). Interacts with INPP5A, EML1, SV1L, GPSM2, ITGB3BP, CNTN1, ETFA, PSMD8, S100A10, MPHOSPH8, TMEM100, ALB, PARPBP, HCFC2, NCBP1 and SETDB1 (By similarity).

TASOR_MOUSE / Q69ZR9 Protein TASOR; Transgene activation suppressor protein from Mus musculus (Mouse) (see 3 papers)

  disruption phenotype: Embryonic lethality with robust developmentally delayed phenotype observed at 8.5 dpc, progressing through 9.5 dpc with full lethality by 12.5 dpc (PubMed:24781204, PubMed:28839193). RNAi- mediated knockdown in zygotes results in formation of multipolar spindles and increased ratio of arrested or incorrectly developed embryos (PubMed:28839193).
