Mecp2 | Methyl-CpG-binding protein 2; Chromosomal protein that binds to methylated DNA. It can bind specifically to a single methyl-CpG pair. It is not influenced by sequences flanking the methyl-CpGs. Mediates transcriptional repression through interaction with histone deacetylase and the corepressor SIN3. Binds both 5-methylcytosine (5mC) and 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC)- containing DNA, with a preference for 5-methylcytosine (5mC). (501 aa) | ||||
Zc3h10 | Zinc finger CCCH domain-containing protein 10; Specific regulator of miRNA biogenesis. Binds, via the C3H1- type zinc finger domains, to the binding motif 5'-GCAGCGC-3' on microRNA pri-MIR143 and negatively regulates the processing to mature microRNA. (435 aa) |
