Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.4.0)

Enables several functions, including histone reader activity; nucleic acid binding activity; and promoter-specific chromatin binding activity. Involved in several processes, including associative learning; negative regulation of smooth muscle cell differentiation; and negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including learning or memory; nervous system development; and regulation of gene expression. Located in cytosol; heterochromatin; and nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; early conceptus; nervous system; paraxial mesenchyme; and sensory organ. Used to study Rett syndrome. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Rett syndrome; autistic disorder; gastrointestinal system disease; severe congenital encephalopathy due to MECP2 mutation; and syndromic X-linked intellectual disability (multiple). Orthologous to human MECP2 (methyl-CpG binding protein 2).
