Target Info

• Gene Symbol: MECP2
• Alias Symbols: Methyl CpG binding protein 2 (Rett syndrome), MeCp-2 protein, AUTSX3, MRX16, MRX79, MRXS13, MRXSL, PPMX, RTT, Mental retardation, X-linked 16, DKFZp686A24160.
• Description of Target: MECP2 is the key modificator of eukaryotic genomes and has a crucial part in mammalian development. Human proteins MECP2, MBD1, MBD2, MBD3, and MBD4 form a family of nuclear proteins linked by the existence in each of a methyl-CpG binding domain (MBD). Each one of these proteins, with the exception of MBD3, can bind specifically to methylated DNA. In addition, MECP2, MBD1 and MBD2 can inhibit transcription from methylated gene promoters. Unlike other MBD family members, MECP2 is X-linked and subject to X inactivation. MECP2 is expendable in stem cells, but is vital 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 reasons of mental retardation in females.
