MicroRNAs are small non-coding RNAs that can negatively regulate gene expression on a post-transcriptional level and have been shown to interact with epigenetic mechanisms like DNA methylation. Methyl CpG binding protein 2 (MeCP2) is a protein that recognizes methylated DNA sequences and can thus modulate gene expression. MeCP2 expression is downre...
