Description : (at3g01460 : 239.0) Encodes a protein with a methyl-CpG-binding domain. Has sequence similarity to human MBD proteins. Involved in the modification of the FLC chromatin acetylation state to affect FLC expression. Mutants show an early flowering, and enhanced shoot branching phenotypes.; methyl-CPG-binding domain 9 (MBD9); FUNCTIONS IN: methyl-CpG binding, DNA binding; INVOLVED IN: photoperiodism, flowering, secondary shoot formation, regulation of transcription, DNA-dependent; LOCATED IN: nucleus; EXPRESSED IN: 23 plant structures; EXPRESSED DURING: 13 growth stages; CONTAINS InterPro DOMAIN/s: Zinc finger, PHD-type, conserved site (InterPro:IPR019786), Zinc finger, RING-type (InterPro:IPR001841), FY-rich, C-terminal (InterPro:IPR003889), Zinc finger, PHD-type (InterPro:IPR001965), FY-rich, N-terminal (InterPro:IPR003888), DNA-binding, integrase-type (InterPro:IPR016177), Zinc finger, FYVE/PHD-type (InterPro:IPR011011), Methyl-CpG DNA binding (InterPro:IPR001739), Zinc finger, PHD-finger (InterPro:IPR019787); BEST Arabidopsis thaliana protein match is: RING/FYVE/PHD-type zinc finger family protein (TAIR:AT1G77250.1); Has 6416 Blast hits to 3988 proteins in 224 species: Archae - 0; Bacteria - 0; Metazoa - 4085; Fungi - 602; Plants - 1260; Viruses - 0; Other Eukaryotes - 469 (source: NCBI BLink). & (reliability: 478.0) & (original description: no original description)
