CESR5 Epigenetic regulation of MeCP2 using IPSC
... Rett syndrome is caused by mosaic expression of mutant copies of the X-linked MECP2 gene. MeCP2 is a protein that binds to methylated DNA throughout the genome and is thought to be involved in epigenetic regulation of target gene expression. Understanding how MeCP2 regulates gene expression and whic ...
