Exploring the bistable equilibrium of methylated CpG DNA recognition by the MBD2 protein

Senta Volkenandt, Julia Belyaeva, Torry Li…·Mahdi Bagherpoor Helabad

The paper uses molecular dynamics simulations and experimental assays to show MBD2 binds methylated CpG DNA with a bistable equilibrium, involving two stable conformations with different affinities.
