Paxip1 | PAX-interacting protein 1; Involved in DNA damage response and in transcriptional regulation through histone methyltransferase (HMT) complexes such as the MLL2/MLL3 complex. Plays a role in early development. In DNA damage response is required for cell survival after ionizing radiation. In vitro shown to be involved in the homologous recombination mechanism for the repair of double-strand breaks (DSBs). Its localization to DNA damage foci requires Rnf8 and Ube2n. Recruits Tp53bp1 to DNA damage foci and, at least in particular repair processes, effective DNA damage response appears to r [...] (1056 aa) | ||||
Kdm8 | Bifunctional peptidase and arginyl-hydroxylase JMJD5; Bifunctional enzyme that acts both as an endopeptidase and 2- oxoglutarate-dependent monoxygenase. Endopeptidase that cleaves histones N-terminal tails at the carboxyl side of methylated arginine or lysine residues, to generate 'tailless nucleosomes', which may trigger transcription elongation. Preferentially recognizes and cleaves monomethylated and dimethylated arginine residues of histones H2, H3 and H4. After initial cleavage, continues to digest histones tails via its aminopeptidase activity. Upon DNA damage, cleaves the N-term [...] (414 aa) |
