(Submitter supplied) Whole striatum were dissected from wild-type, as well as in mice where Dnmt3a or MeCP2 was conditional deleted in inhibitory neurons. Inhibitory neuronal nuclei were also conditionally tagged with GFP in all mice. Tissues were snap-frozen in liquid nitrogen until further analysis. Inhibitory neurons were sorted from whole striatum using anti-GFP-488 and anti-NeuN-647 signals and snap frozen until further analysis. more...

(Submitter supplied) The postnatal neurodevelopmental disorder Rett syndrome (RTT) is caused by mutations in the gene encoding Methyl-CpG-binding Protein 2 (MeCP2). Despite decades of research, it remains unclear how MeCP2 actually regulates transcription or why RTT features appear only 6-18 months after birth. We examined MeCP2 binding to methylated cytosine in the CH context (mCH, where H = A, C, or T) in the adult mouse brain and found that MeCP2 binds these mCH sites, influencing nucleosome positioning and transcription. more...

(Submitter supplied) Mutations in the MECP2 gene cause the profound neurological disorder Rett syndrome. MeCP2 protein is an epigenetic reader that recruits the NCOR1/2 corepressor complexes to methylated cytosine in its canonical CG setting, but also to methylated CA motifs, which are abundant in neurons but rare in other cell types. In this study we set out to test the biological significance of this non-canonical mode of DNA binding. more...

(Submitter supplied) Disruption of the MECP2 gene leads to Rett syndrome (RTT), a severe neurological disorder with features of autism. MECP2 encodes a methyl-DNA-binding protein that is proposed to function as a transcriptional repressor, but, despite numerous studies examining neuronal gene expression in MeCP2 mutants, no coherent model has emerged for how MeCP2 regulates transcription. Here we identify a genome-wide length-dependent increase in the expression of long genes in neurons lacking MeCP2. more...

(Submitter supplied) Rett syndrome is a severe neurodevelopmental disorder caused by loss-of-function mutations in the methyl-CpG-binding protein gene, MECP2. MeCP2 is a methyl-cytosine binding protein that is proposed to function as a transcriptional repressor. However, multiple gene expression studies comparing wild-type and MeCP2-deficient neurons have failed to identify gene expression changes consistent with loss of a classical transcriptional repressor. more...

(Submitter supplied) Mutations in the gene encoding the methyl-CG binding protein MeCP2 cause neurological disorders including Rett syndrome. The di-nucleotide methyl-CG (mCG) is the canonical MeCP2 DNA recognition sequence, but additional targets including non-methylated sequences have been reported. Here we use brain-specific depletion of DNA methyltransferase to show that DNA methylation is the primary determinant of MeCP2 binding in mouse brain. more...
