Enables methylated histone binding activity; transcription corepressor activity; and zinc ion binding activity. Involved in regulation of transcription elongation from RNA polymerase II promoter. Predicted to be located in nucleoplasm. Is expressed in early conceptus; inner cell mass; limb mesenchyme; and oocyte. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal dominant non-syndromic intellectual disability 30. Orthologous to human ZMYND11 (zinc finger MYND-type containing 11).
