Facts about Activating transcription factor 7-interacting protein 1.
Mediates MBD1-dependent transcriptional repression, probably by recruiting complexes containing SETDB1. Required to stimulate histone methyltransferase activity of SETDB1 and facilitate the conversion of dimethylated into trimethylated H3'Lys-9' (H3K9me3).
