• Western blot of mouse whole brain lysate showing specific immunolabeling of the MeCP2 protein at ~75 kDa.
  • Immunofluorescence of a section of rat cerebellum showing specific labeling of MeCP2 (STJA0003679, 1:1000, red) in nuclei of neurons and specific labeling of GFAP ( cat. STJA0003659, 1:5000, green) in the network of astroglial cells and projections of Bergmann glia, and Hoechst staining of nuclear DNA.
  • Immunostaining of a section of rat hippocampus showing specific nuclear immunolabeling of MeCP2 (1205-MECP2, red, 1:1000) and FOX3 (green). The blue is DAPI staining of nuclear DNA.
  • Immunofluorescence of a section of rat cerebellum labeled with anti-MeCP2 (1205-MECP2, 1:500, red) , colabeled with anti-GFAP ( cat. 620-GFAP, 1:5000, green) , and DAPI staining of nuclear DNA. The anti-GFAP labels the astrocytic cells and the processes of Bergmann glia in the molecular layer.

Post Translational Modifications Phosphorylated on Ser-423 in brain upon synaptic activity, which attenuates its repressor activity and seems to regulate dendritic growth and spine maturation.
Function Chromosomal protein that binds to methylated DNA. It can bind specifically to a single methyl-CpG pair. It is not influenced by sequences flanking the methyl-CpGs. Mediates transcriptional repression through interaction with histone deacetylase and the corepressor SIN3A. Binds both 5-methylcytosine (5mC) and 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC)-containing DNA, with a preference for 5-methylcytosine (5mC).
