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 SIN3A. Binds both 5-methylcytosine (5mC) and 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC)- containing DNA, with a preference for 5-methylcytosine (5mC). (498 aa) | ||||
BOD1L2 | Biorientation of chromosomes in cell division protein 1-like 2; May play a role in proper chromosome biorientation through the detection or correction of syntelic attachments in mitotic spindles; Belongs to the BOD1 family. (172 aa) |
