Elongin BC and Polycomb repressive complex 2-associated protein (EPOP) also know as C17ORF96 is a scaffold protein that serves as a bridging partner between the PRC2/EED-EZH2 complex and the elongin BC complex. It is required to fine tune the transcriptional status of polycomb group (PcG) target genes in embryonic stem cells (ESCs). C17ORF96 also plays a key role in genomic regions that display both active and repressive chromatin properties in pluripotent stem cells by sustaining low level expression of PcG target genes. It acts by recruiting the elongin BC complex, thereby restricting excessive activity of the PRC2/EED-EZH2 complex. C17ORF96 also has interacts with USP7 and promotes deubiquitination of H2B at promoter sites.
