ZCWPW1 - zinc finger CW-type and PWWP domain containing 1

Function

Dual histone methylation reader specific for PRDM9-catalyzed histone marks (H3K4me3 and H3K36me3) (PubMed:32744506, PubMed:20826339). Facilitates the repair of PRDM9-induced meiotic double-strand breaks (DSBs) (By similarity). Essential for male fertility and spermatogenesis (By similarity). Required for meiosis prophase I progression in male but not in female germ cells (By similarity).
