Target

  • FunctionBinds 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 specificityHighly expressed in brain, heart, kidney, stomach, testis and placenta.
  • Sequence similaritiesContains 1 MBD (methyl-CpG-binding) domain.
  • Cellular localizationNucleus. Nuclear, in discrete foci. Detected at replication foci in late S phase.
  • Target information above from: UniProt accession Q9UBB5 The UniProt Consortium
    The Universal Protein Resource (UniProt) in 2010
