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) | ||||
Rpl23a | 60S ribosomal protein L23a; Component of the ribosome, a large ribonucleoprotein complex responsible for the synthesis of proteins in the cell. Binds a specific region on the 26S rRNA (By similarity). May promote p53/TP53 degradation possibly through the stimulation of MDM2-mediated TP53 polyubiquitination (By similarity); Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uL23 family. (156 aa) |
