Methyl-CpG-binding domain protein 3 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MBD3 gene.[5][6][7]

Function

DNA methylation is the major modification of eukaryotic genomes and plays an essential role in mammalian development. Human proteins

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 but instead binds to hydroxymethylated DNA.[8] 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.[7]

MBD3 also contains the

polycomb repressive complex 2 to a subset of genes linked to development and organogenesis, thus establishing stable transcriptional repression.[9]
