CC -!- FUNCTION: Primordial germ cell (PGCs)-specific protein involved in
CC epigenetic chromatin reprogramming in the zygote following
CC fertilization. In zygotes, DNA demethylation occurs selectively in the
CC paternal pronucleus before the first cell division, while the adjacent
CC maternal pronucleus and certain paternally-imprinted loci are protected
CC from this process. Participates in protection of DNA methylation in the
CC maternal pronucleus by preventing conversion of 5mC to 5hmC:
CC specifically recognizes and binds histone H3 dimethylated at 'Lys-9'
CC (H3K9me2) on maternal genome, and protects maternal genome from TET3-
CC mediated conversion to 5hmC and subsequent DNA demethylation. Does not
CC bind paternal chromatin, which is mainly packed into protamine and does
CC not contain much H3K9me2 mark. Also protects imprinted loci that are
CC marked with H3K9me2 in mature sperm from DNA demethylation in early
CC embryogenesis. May be important for the totipotent/pluripotent states
CC continuing through preimplantation development. Also involved in
CC chromatin condensation in oocytogenesis. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12124616,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:12620990, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14654002,

CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:22034526, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22722204}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus. Cytoplasm. Note=Localized in the
CC cytoplasm at the primary oocyte stage and in oocytes within mono-
CC laminar follicles. Expressed in the nucleus and cytoplasm of oocytes in
CC bi-laminar and Graafian follicles and during the 2-cell and morula
CC stages. In 3.5 dpc blastocysts localization is mainly nuclear. Mainly
CC localizes in the female pronucleus, localization to the male pronucleus
CC in much weaker.
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed in the immature oocytes and in newborn
CC ovaries. Subsequently detected in maturing oocytes and in
CC preimplantation embryos. Expressed in pluripotent embryonic but not in
CC differentiated somatic cells. Expressed in blastocysts, epiblasts,
CC primordial germ cells, embryonic gonads and primitive spermatogonia. No
CC expression is detected in adult testes. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11900980,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:12124616, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12620990}.
CC -!- DEVELOPMENTAL STAGE: Detected at 3.5 dpc (at protein level). Activated
CC during the process of germ cell specification at 7 dpc.25, specifically
CC in the founder population of lineage-restricted primordial germ cells
CC (PGCs). Thereafter, expressed in the germ line until about 15.5 dpc in
CC male and 13.5 dpc in female gonads. Expressed during blastocyst, morula
CC and 4-cell embryo stages. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11900980,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:12620990, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14654002,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:14684992}.
CC -!- DOMAIN: Mediates binding to H3K9me2 via N-terminal region, while
CC ability to exclude TET3 from the maternal pronucleus requires the C-
CC terminal part. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22722204}.
CC -!- DISRUPTION PHENOTYPE: Null mutation result in apparently normal
CC offspring. No effect on early gonadal PGCs or gross abnormalities in
CC the development of gametes. However, females display severely reduced
CC fertility despite ovulation of normal numbers of oocytes. Null mutation
CC resulted in preimplantation development failure. Embryos rarely reached
CC the blastocyst stage. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:14654002,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:15018652, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17143267}.
