General annotation (Comments)

Function

Recognizes N4- and C5-methylcytosine (and 5-hydroxy-methylcytosines) produced by a broad range of DNA methylases and appears to act against 5-methylcytosine preceded by a purine residue. Binds to DNA containing methylated cytosines; also binds to GTP. Isoform 33 kDa is less active than isoform 51 kDa and may play a role in regulating the activity of isoform 51 kDa by competing with it in DNA and protein binding abilities.

Sequence caution

The sequence AAA24145.1 differs from that shown. Reason: Erroneous initiation. Translation N-terminally shortened.

The sequence AAA97243.1 differs from that shown. Reason: Erroneous initiation. Translation N-terminally shortened.
