MBD2 |
Protein |
Methyl-CpG-binding domain protein 2 |
Uniprot ID |
Q9UBB5 |
Function |
Binds CpG islands in promoters where the DNA is methylated at position 5 of cytosine within CpG dinucleotides. Binds hemimethylated DNA as well. Recruits histone deacetylases and DNA methyltransferases. Acts as transcriptional repressor and plays a role in gene silencing. Functions as a scaffold protein, targeting GATAD2A and GATAD2B to chromatin to promote repression. May enhance the activation of some unmethylated cAMP-responsive promoters. |
Tissue Specificity |
Highly expressed in brain, heart, kidney, stomach, testis and placenta. |
Sub-cellular localization |
Nucleus. |
Sequence Similarities |
Contains 1 MBD (methyl-CpG-binding) domain. |
