Methyl-CpG-Binding Domain Protein 1 (MBD1) is a member of the MBD transcriptional repressor family and is predominantly expressed in neurons. It binds to methylated sequences in DNA, influencing transcription. It has been shown to play a role in chromatin modification through interaction with the histone H3K9 methyltransferase SETDB1. H3K9me3 is a repressive modification.
MBD1 acts as an epigenetic regulator via different mechanisms, such as the formation of the MCAF1/MBD1/SETDB1 complex or the MBD1-HDAC3 complex.

MBD2 and MDB3 are non-enzymatic subunits of the NuRD (nucleosome remodelling and deacetylation) complex. MBD2 and MBD3 are close relatives and probably descend via gene duplication from an ancestral MBD2/MBD3, that is present in some metazoans as for instance Caenorhabditis elegans and Drosophila. Outside the MBD domain, MBD2 and MBD3 share almost 80% homology; they both have an MBD and a coiled-coil domain (CC). Apart from this common domain, MBD2 contains an additional N-terminal glycine-arginine (GR) rich domain and a transcriptional repressor domain (TRD), whereas MBD3 has a C-terminal poly-glutamate region. Three isoforms have been described for MBD2 protein: the full length MBD2a, MBD2b lacking the N-terminal GR repeat and MBD2c that is a testis specific isoform lacking the C-terminus. Also MBD3 presents three isoforms: Mbd3b the major isoform in embryonic stem cells, Mbd3a and a smaller isoform Mbd3c. The crucial difference between MBD2 and MBD3 is that MBD3 does not bind methylated DNA, because it lacks four conserved amino acids in the MBD domain.
