General annotation (Comments)

Function

Does not bind DNA by itself. Recruits histone deacetylases and DNA methyltransferases. Acts as transcriptional repressor and plays a role in gene silencing. Ref.1 Ref.6 Ref.8

Subunit structure

Heterodimer with MBD2. Part of the NuRD and the MeCP1 complex. Binds HDAC1, MTA2, DNMT1, p66-alpha and p66-beta. Ref.6

Subcellular location

Nucleus. Note: Nuclear, in discrete foci. Ref.1

Sequence similarities

Contains 1 MBD (methyl-CpG-binding) domain.

Sequence caution

The sequence AAH32443.1 differs from that shown. Reason: Erroneous initiation.
