sin3 repressor complex

Function

• interacts with MeCP2 to repress gene transcription at sites of methylated CpG islands

Structure

• subunits: HDAC core complex, SIN3, SAP18, SAP30, SUDS3

Notes

unclear if this is the same as sin3A corepressor complex

More general terms

• molecular complex
• transcriptional silencer (transcriptional repressor)

Additional terms

• Sin3A corepressor complex
