History and Naming

[edit]

Would it be possible to add when this was discovered and named in particular?

The reason I ask is because it was a bit difficult for me to memorize the name; the abbreviation is "MECP2" but the expanded name is "Methyl CpG-binding domain protein 2", as wikipedia states. But the "domain" part is not part of the abbreviation, which confused me. So I'd like to name why this unusual name was chosen. 2A02:8388:1604:F600:3AD5:47FF:FE18:CC7F (talk) 22:19, 27 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
