BackgroundDNA methylation is the major modification of eukaryotic genomes and plays an essential role in mammalian development. Methyl-CpG binding protein 2 (MeCP2), which can bind to methylated DNA in vivo and in vitro, may serve as a methylationdependent transcriptional repressor by association with known co-repressor proteins, which include members of the histone deacetylase protein families.
