Densely methylated DNA traps Methyl-CpG-binding domain protein 2 but permits free diffusion by Methyl-CpG-binding domain protein 3
JOURNAL OF BIOLOGICAL CHEMISTRY, 298(10).
MeSH headings : CpG Islands; DNA Methylation; DNA-Binding Proteins / metabolism; Mi-2 Nucleosome Remodeling and Deacetylase Complex / genetics; Mi-2 Nucleosome Remodeling and Deacetylase Complex / metabolism; Nucleosomes; Protein Binding; Transcription Factors / metabolism; Humans; Single Molecule Imaging
TL;DR:
These studies support a model in which MBD2-NuRD strongly localizes to and compacts methylated CpG islands while MBD3-NURD can freely mobilize nucleosomes independent of methylation status.

2021 journal article
TIN2 is an architectural protein that facilitates TRF2-mediated trans- and cis-interactions on telomeric DNA
NUCLEIC ACIDS RESEARCH, 49(22), 13000–13018.
MeSH headings : Animals; DNA / chemistry; DNA / genetics; DNA / metabolism; HeLa Cells; Humans; Mice, Inbred C57BL; Microscopy, Atomic Force; Nucleic Acid Conformation; Protein Binding; Shelterin Complex / genetics; Shelterin Complex / metabolism; Telomere / genetics; Telomere / metabolism; Telomere-Binding Proteins / genetics; Telomere-Binding Proteins / metabolism; Telomeric Repeat Binding Protein 2 / genetics; Telomeric Repeat Binding Protein 2 / metabolism
TL;DR:
A molecular model in which TIN2 functions as an architectural protein to promote TRF2-mediated trans and cis higher-order nucleic acid structures at telomeres is proposed.

2020 journal article
DNA looping by two 5-methylcytosine-binding proteins quantified using nanofluidic devices
EPIGENETICS & CHROMATIN, 13(1).
author keywords: DNA methylation; MeCP2; MBD2; DNA compaction
MeSH headings : 5-Methylcytosine / chemistry; 5-Methylcytosine / metabolism; Binding Sites; DNA / chemistry; DNA / metabolism; DNA Methylation; DNA-Binding Proteins / chemistry; DNA-Binding Proteins / metabolism; Epigenomics / methods; Humans; Methyl-CpG-Binding Protein 2 / chemistry; Methyl-CpG-Binding Protein 2 / metabolism; Microfluidics / instrumentation; Microfluidics / methods; Microscopy, Atomic Force / methods; Protein Binding
TL;DR:
It is demonstrated that ATTO 565-labeled MBD2 is a good candidate as a staining agent for epigenetic mapping and determined that the mechanism for compaction by MeCP2 is the formation of bridges between distant DNA stretches and theformation of loops.
