Human proteins MECP2, MBD1, MBD2, MBD3, and MBD4 comprise a family of nuclear proteins related by the presence in each of a methyl-CpG binding domain (MBD). Each of these proteins, with the exception of MBD3, is capable of binding specifically to methylated DNA. MECP2, MBD1 and MBD2 can also repress transcription from methylated gene promoters. In contrast to other MBD family members, MECP2 is X-linked and subject to X inactivation. MECP2 is dispensible in stem cells, but is essential for embryonic development. MECP2 gene mutations are the cause of most cases of Rett syndrome, a progressive neurologic developmental disorder and one of the most common causes of mental retardation in females. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isofor\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eResearch_area\u003c\/b\u003e:Epigenetics and nuclear signaling; Neuroscience\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eTarget_protein\u003c\/b\u003e:MECP2\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eapplications\u003c\/b\u003e:WB\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eReactivity\u003c\/b\u003e:Human\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eClonality\u003c\/b\u003e:Polyclonal\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eClone ID\u003c\/b\u003e:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHost\u003c\/b\u003e:Rabbit\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIsotype\u003c\/b\u003e:IgG\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eGene Symbol\/ Name\u003c\/b\u003e:Methyl-CpG-binding protein 2\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eImmunogen\u003c\/b\u003e:The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from human AMPK alpha around the phosphorylation site of Thr172.
