Disease relevance of Mbd1

  • The defect was CD8 T cell intrinsic, because memory cell development was also delayed when MBD2(-/-) CD8 T cells were adoptively transferred into SCID mice [1].
  • The role of MBD2 during the differentiation of naive CD8 T cells into effector and memory cells was determined following acute infection of MBD2-deficient mice with lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus [1].
 

Psychiatry related information on Mbd1

  • Thus, these functional assays are useful to evaluate the consequences of mutation in the methyl-CpG-binding domain of MeCP2 and provide an insight into the relationship between the genotype and the severity of Rett syndrome [2].
 

High impact information on Mbd1

 

Biological context of Mbd1

  • These data support the hypothesis that MBD protein-associated histone deacetylase/chromatin-remodelling complexes are recruited to the parental allele that has methylated DNA and H3-K9 methylation, and are prevented from binding to the opposite allele by H3 lysine-4 methylation [6].
  • Missense mutations in the methyl-CpG-binding domain were analyzed by the transfection in mouse L929 cells and Drosophila SL2 cells [2].
  • The methyl-CpG binding protein MBD1 interacts with the p150 subunit of chromatin assembly factor 1 [7].
  • MBD1 is a vertebrate methyl-CpG binding domain protein (MBD) that can bring about repression of methylated promoter DNA sequences [8].
  • NMR studies have revealed that the MBD adopts a wedge-shaped molecular structure [9].
 

Anatomical context of Mbd1

  • These data demonstrate that MBD2 is a previously unrecognized intracellular factor required for the efficient generation of protective memory CD8 T cells [1].
  • Here, the functional significance of 28 MBD missense mutations identified in patients were analysed by transient expression of the mutant proteins in cultured cells [10].
  • In these mice the histone deacetylase inhibitor valproate, which increases acetylated histone content in cortical GABAergic interneurons, also prevents MET-induced RELN promoter hypermethylation and reduces the methyl-CpG binding domain protein binding to RELN and GAD67 promoters [11].
  • Despite its negative T15 idiotype profile, N-terminal amino acid sequencing of PCM-1 purified heavy chain and Southern blots of the hybridoma DNA indicated that it utilizes the T15 VH and JH1 genes [12].
  • A synthetic RNA encoding enhanced green fluorescence protein fused to the methyl-CpG-binding domain and nuclear localization signal of human MBD1 was microinjected into metaphase II-arrested or fertilized oocytes, and the localization of methylated DNA was monitored by live cell imaging [13].
 

Associations of Mbd1 with chemical compounds

  • The mammalian protein MBD4 contains a methyl-CpG binding domain and can enzymatically remove thymine (T) or uracil (U) from a mismatched CpG site in vitro [14].
  • Within the nucleus, FADD interacted with the methyl-CpG binding domain protein 4 (MBD4), which excises thymine from GT mismatches in methylated regions of chromatin [15].
  • 5-halogenated pyrimidine lesions within a CpG sequence context mimic 5-methylcytosine by enhancing the binding of the methyl-CpG-binding domain of methyl-CpG-binding protein 2 (MeCP2) [16].
