Pitx1 | Pituitary homeobox 1; Sequence-specific transcription factor that binds gene promoters and activates their transcription. May play a role in the development of anterior structures, and in particular, the brain and facies and in specifying the identity or structure of hindlimb. Can independently activate and synergize with PIT-1 on pituitary-specific target gene promoters, thus may subserve functions in generating both precursor and specific cell phenotypes in the anterior pituitary gland and in several other organs. Can activate pituitary transcription of the proopiomelanocortin gene. (315 aa) | ||||
Dapk3 | Death-associated protein kinase 3; Serine/threonine kinase which is involved in the regulation of apoptosis, autophagy, transcription, translation and actin cytoskeleton reorganization. Regulates both type I (caspase-dependent) apoptotic and type II (caspase-independent) autophagic cell deaths signal, depending on the cellular setting. Involved in formation of promyelocytic leukemia protein nuclear body (PML-NB). Involved in apoptosis involving PAWR which mediates cytoplasmic relocation; in vitro phosphorylates PAWR (By similarity). Phosphorylates MYL12B in non-muscle cells leading to [...] (448 aa) |
