UniProtKB description:  Structural component of heterochromatin, involved in gene repression and the modification of position-effect-variegation. Recognizes and binds histone H3 tails methylated at 'Lys-9', leading to epigenetic repression. Stabilizes chromatin-associated RNAs probably by binding to them and thereby preventing their degradation (PubMed:26389589).
