Subcellular location [CC]Nucleus {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21914818, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25600804}. Nucleus, nucleolus {ECO:0000269|PubMed:26100909}. Note=In the nucleus, observed in heterochromatic foci containing CBX1, CBX3, CBX5 and histone H3 trimethylated at 'Lys-9'. Released from chromatin during decondensation. Association with heterochromatin does not depend on sumoylation. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21914818}.
