Irf3 | Interferon regulatory factor 3; Key transcriptional regulator of type I interferon (IFN)- dependent immune responses which plays a critical role in the innate immune response against DNA and RNA viruses. Regulates the transcription of type I IFN genes (IFN-alpha and IFN- beta) and IFN-stimulated genes (ISG) by binding to an interferon- stimulated response element (ISRE) in their promoters. Acts as a more potent activator of the IFN-beta (IFNB) gene than the IFN-alpha (IFNA) gene and plays a critical role in both the early and late phases of the IFNA/B gene induction. Found in an inacti [...] (419 aa) | ||||
Jazf1 | Juxtaposed with another zinc finger protein 1; Acts as a transcriptional corepressor of orphan nuclear receptor NR2C2 (By similarity). Inhibits expression of the gluconeogenesis enzyme PCK2 through inhibition of NR2C2 activity. Also involved in transcriptional activation of NAMPT by promoting expression of PPARA and PPARD. Plays a role in lipid metabolism by suppressing lipogenesis, increasing lipolysis and decreasing lipid accumulation in adipose tissue. Plays a role in glucose homeostasis by improving glucose metabolism and insulin sensitivity. (243 aa) |
