MBD3 Human Recombinant produced in E. coli is a single polypeptide chain containing 314 amino acids (1-291) and having a molecular mass of 35.2 kDa. MBD3 is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Methyl-CpG-binding domain protein 3 (MBD3), belongs to the MBD family of transcriptional repressors. Human proteins MECP2, MBD1, MBD2, MBD3, and MBD4 includes a family of nuclear proteins related by the presence of a methyl-CpG binding domain (MBD) in each protein. Nevertheless, not like the other family members, MBD3 is not capable of binding to methylated DNA. MBD3 is a subunit of the NuRD, a multisubunit complex having nucleosome remodeling and histone deacetylase activities. The predicted MBD3 protein shares 71% and 94% identity with MBD2 (isoform 1) and mouse Mbd3. MBD3 mediates the association of metastasis-associated protein 2 (MTA2) with the core histone deacetylase complex.
