products description :
Methyl-CpG-binding domain protein 3, also known as MBD3, is a member of the MBD family of transcriptional repressors. 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). However, unlike the other family members, MBD3 is not capable of binding to methylated DNA. The predicted MBD3 protein shares 71% and 94% identity with MBD2 (isoform 1) and mouse Mbd3. MBD3 is a subunit of the NuRD, a multisubunit complex containing nucleosome remodeling and histone deacetylase activities. MBD3 mediates the association of metastasis-associated protein 2 (MTA2) with the core histone deacetylase complex. Recombinant human MBD3 protein, fused to His-tag at N-terminus, was expressed in E.coli and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques.

ncbi summary :
DNA methylation is the major modification of eukaryotic genomes and plays an essential role in mammalian development. This gene belongs to a family of nuclear proteins which are characterized by the presence of a methyl-CpG binding domain (MBD). The encoded protein is a subunit of the NuRD, a multisubunit complex containing nucleosome remodeling and histone deacetylase activities. Unlike the other family members, the encoded protein is not capable of binding to methylated DNA. The protein mediates the association of metastasis-associated protein 2 with the core histone deacetylase complex. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants of this gene.

uniprot summary :
MBD3: methyl-CpG binding (MBD) proteins appear to bind differentially methylated domains (DMDs) of DNA, to recruit repression complexes, and to silence the locus. The methyl CpG binding domain of human MBD3 may not directly bind mCpG but does interact with the NuRD/Mi2 components HDAC1 and MTA2. Plays a role in histone deacetylation and nucleosome remodeling. Increased levels have been reported in lung cancer and glioblastomas and may be a therapeutic target. Protein type: Transcription, coactivator/corepressor; Gene silencing. Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 19p13.3. Cellular Component: nucleoplasm; heterochromatin; protein complex; cytoplasm; nuclear chromatin; NuRD complex. Molecular Function: protein binding; nucleosomal DNA binding; DNA binding; methyl-CpG binding. Biological Process: tissue development; establishment and/or maintenance of chromatin architecture; transcription, DNA-dependent; methylation-dependent chromatin silencing; in utero embryonic development; ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling; histone acetylation; negative regulation of transcription from RNA polymerase II promoter
