Enables S-adenosyl-L-methionine binding activity; histone methyltransferase activity (H3-K9 specific); and zinc ion binding activity. Involved in chromatin assembly or disassembly and chromatin remodeling. Acts upstream of or within cellular response to hypoxia and negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Located in chromatin. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
