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) | ||||
Aldh3b1 | Aldehyde dehydrogenase family 3 member B1; Oxidizes medium and long chain saturated and unsaturated aldehydes. Metabolizes also benzaldehyde (By similarity). Low activity towards acetaldehyde and 3,4- dihydroxyphenylacetaldehyde (By similarity). May not metabolize short chain aldehydes. Can use both NADP(+) and NAD(+) as electron acceptor (By similarity). May have a protective role against the cytotoxicity induced by lipid peroxidation (By similarity). (468 aa) |
