Required for genome-wide de novo methylation and is essential for the establishment of DNA methylation pattes during development. DNA methylation is coordinated with methylation of histones. It modifies DNA in a non-processive manner and also methylates non-CpG sites. May preferentially methylate DNA linker between 2 nucleosomal cores and is inhibited by histone H1. Plays a role in pateal and mateal imprinting. Required for methylation of most imprinted loci in germ cells. Acts as a transcriptional corepressor for ZBTB18. Recruited to trimethylated 'Lys-36' of histone H3(H3K36me3) sites. Can actively repress transcription through the recruitment of HDAC activity.
