Setdb1 | Histone-lysine N-methyltransferase SETDB1; Histone methyltransferase that specifically trimethylates 'Lys-9' of histone H3. H3 'Lys-9' trimethylation represents a specific tag for epigenetic transcriptional repression by recruiting HP1 (CBX1, CBX3 and/or CBX5) proteins to methylated histones. Mainly functions in euchromatin regions, thereby playing a central role in the silencing of euchromatic genes. H3 'Lys- 9' trimethylation is coordinated with DNA methylation. Probably forms a complex with MBD1 and ATF7IP that represses transcription and couples DNA methylation and histone 'Lys-9' [...] (1308 aa) | ||||
Npy6r | Neuropeptide Y receptor type 6; Receptor for neuropeptide Y and peptide YY. The rank order of affinity of this receptor for pancreatic polypeptides is NPY = PYY >= NPY (2-36) = [Leu-31, Pro-34] NPY > NPY (13-36) > PP. The activity of this receptor is mediated by G proteins that inhibits adenylate cyclase activity. (371 aa) |
