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) | ||||
Klf7 | Krueppel-like factor 7; Transcriptional factor. Plays a critical role in neuronal morphogenesis. Represses the corneal epithelium differentiation (By similarity). Acts also as a metabolic regulator, by modulating insulin sensitivity in pancreatic beta cells and skeletal muscle cells. Inhibits transcriptional inducers of adipogenesis and has a repressive role in the expression of several adipokines, including leptin (By similarity). Belongs to the krueppel C2H2-type zinc-finger protein family. (301 aa) |
