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) | ||||
Pou2f2 | POU domain, class 2, transcription factor 2; Transcription factor that specifically binds to the octamer motif (5'-ATTTGCAT-3'). Regulates transcription in a number of tissues in addition to activating immunoglobulin gene expression. Modulates transcription transactivation by NR3C1, AR and PGR. Isoform OCT2.5 activates the U2 small nuclear RNA (snRNA) promoter. Isoforms OCT2.1, OCT2.2 and OCT2.3 activate octamer-containing promoters. Isoforms OCT2.4 and OCT2.5 repress some promoters and activate others. Isoform OCT2.7 is unable to bind to the octamer motif, but can still activate the b [...] (583 aa) |
