Smad4 | Mothers against decapentaplegic homolog 4; Common SMAD (co-SMAD) is the coactivator and mediator of signal transduction by TGF-beta (transforming growth factor). Component of the heterotrimeric SMAD2/SMAD3-SMAD4 complex that forms in the nucleus and is required for the TGF-mediated signaling. Promotes binding of the SMAD2/SMAD4/FAST-1 complex to DNA and provides an activation function required for SMAD1 or SMAD2 to stimulate transcription. Component of the multimeric SMAD3/SMAD4/JUN/FOS complex which forms at the AP1 promoter site; required for synergistic transcriptional activity in r [...] (551 aa) | ||||
Usp53 | Inactive ubiquitin carboxyl-terminal hydrolase 53; Tight junction-associated protein that is involved in the survival of auditory hair cells and hearing. Maybe by modulating the barrier properties and mechanical stability of tight junctions. Has no peptidase activity. (1069 aa) |
