Cbx2 | Chromobox protein homolog 2; Component of a Polycomb group (PcG) multiprotein PRC1-like complex, a complex class required to maintain the transcriptionally repressive state of many genes, including Hox genes, throughout development (By similarity). PcG PRC1 complex acts via chromatin remodeling and modification of histones; it mediates monoubiquitination of histone H2A 'Lys-119', rendering chromatin heritably changed in its expressibility (By similarity). Binds to histone H3 trimethylated at 'Lys-9' (H3K9me3) or at 'Lys-27' (H3K27me3). Plays a role in the lineage differentiation of the [...] (519 aa) | ||||
Sox7 | Transcription factor SOX-7; Binds to and activates the CDH5 promoter, hence plays a role in the transcriptional regulation of genes expressed in the hemogenic endothelium and blocks further differentiation into blood precursors. May be required for the survival of both hematopoietic and endothelial precursors during specification. May play a role in skeletal myogenesis and up-regulate the expression of muscle markers, such as PAX3/PAX7 and Meox1. Competes with GATA4 for binding and activation of the FGF3 promoter. Represses Wnt/beta-catenin-stimulated transcription. Probably acts by ta [...] (380 aa) |
