Crystal structure MBD4 MBD domain in complex with methylated CpG DNA

Function

[MBD4_HUMAN] Mismatch-specific DNA N-glycosylase involved in DNA repair. Has thymine glycosylase activity and is specific for G:T mismatches within methylated and unmethylated CpG sites. Can also remove uracil or 5-fluorouracil in G:U mismatches. Has no lyase activity. Was first identified as methyl-CpG-binding protein.[1] [2]
