The human proteins MBD5 and MBD6 associate with heterochromatin but they do not bind methylated DNA.

<h4>Background</h4>MBD5 and MBD6 are two uncharacterized mammalian proteins that contain a putative Methyl-Binding Domain (MBD). In the proteins MBD1, MBD2, MBD4, and MeCP2, this domain allows the specific recognition of DNA containing methylated cytosine; as a consequence, the proteins...
