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

Subunit structure

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

Subcellular location

Nucleus. Note: Nuclear, in discrete foci. Ref.1 Ref.4

Tissue specificity

Highly expressed in brain, heart, kidney, liver, lung, skeletal muscle, spleen and testis. Detected at lower levels in embryonic stem cells. Ref.1

Sequence similarities

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