Ptf1a | Pancreas transcription factor 1 subunit alpha; Transcription factor implicated in the cell fate determination in various organs. Binds to the E-box consensus sequence 5'-CANNTG-3'. Plays a role in early and late pancreas development and differentiation. Important for determining whether cells allocated to the pancreatic buds continue towards pancreatic organogenesis or revert back to duodenal fates. May be involved in the maintenance of exocrine pancreas-specific gene expression including ELA1 and amylase. Required for the formation of pancreatic acinar and ductal cells. Plays an impor [...] (324 aa) | ||||
Fn3k | Fructosamine-3-kinase; Fructosamine-3-kinase involved in protein deglycation by mediating phosphorylation of fructoselysine residues on glycated proteins, to generate fructoselysine-3 phosphate. Fructoselysine-3 phosphate adducts are unstable and decompose under physiological conditions (By similarity). Involved in intracellular deglycation in erythrocytes and pancreatic islets. Involved in the response to oxidative stress by mediating deglycation of NFE2L2/NRF2, glycation impairing NFE2L2/NRF2 function. Also able to phosphorylate psicosamines and ribulosamines (By similarity). (309 aa) |
