CBX5 (gene)

Chromobox protein homolog 5 is a is_associated_with::protein that in humans is encoded by the CBX5 is_associated_with::gene.

Function
Heterochromatin protein-1 (HP1) is a methyl-lysine binding protein localized at heterochromatin sites, where it mediates gene silencing.[supplied by OMIM]
