NCBI Protein Information
methyl-CPG-binding domain 9
NCBI Summary
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.

UniProt Comments
Probable transcriptional regulator that acts as a histone acetyltransferase. Mediates the acetylation of histone H3 and H4 of target loci (e.g. FLC). Involved in an auxin-independent regulation of shoot branching and flowering time.
