Facts about Methylosome protein 50.
Might play a role in transcription regulation. The methylosome complex also methylates the Piwi proteins (PIWIL1, PIWIL2 and PIWIL4), methylation of Piwi proteins being required for the interaction with Tudor domain- containing proteins and subsequent localization to the meiotic nuage (PubMed:19584108).
