POGZ

POGZ appears to be a zinc finger protein containing a transposase domain at the C-terminus. This protein was found to interact with the transcription factor SP1 in a yeast two-hybrid system.

POGZ

Plays a role in mitotic cell cycle progression and is involved in kinetochore assembly and mitotic sister chromatid cohesion. Probably through its association with CBX5 plays a role in mitotic chromosome segregation by regulating aurora kinase B/AURKB activation and AURKB and CBX5 dissociation from chromosome arms (PubMed:20562864).
Promotes the repair of DNA double-strand breaks through the homologous recombination pathway (PubMed:26721387).

Recruited to trimethylated 'Lys-9' of histone H3 (H3K9me3)

White-Sutton syndrome (WHSUS):
An autosomal dominant syndrome characterized by developmental delay, intellectual disability, hypotonia, behavioral abnormalities, and dysmorphic facial features. Variable features include short stature, microcephaly, strabismus and hearing loss.

Phosphorylation increases its interaction with PSIP1.
