Stra8 | Stimulated by retinoic acid gene 8 protein; Meiosis-inducer required for the transition into meiosis for both female and male germ cells. In female germ cells, required for premeiotic DNA replication and subsequent events in meiotic prophase. During spermatogenesis, next to its role in meiotic initiation, promotes (but is not required for) spermatogonial differentiation. Can associate with DNA (possibly in an indirect manner), and in vitro can activate DNA transcription. (393 aa) | ||||
Slc27a2 | Very long-chain acyl-CoA synthetase; Acyl CoA synthetase that activates long-chain and very long- chain fatty acids (VLCFAs) by catalyzing the formation of fatty acyl- CoA. Can also activate branched- chain fatty acids such as phytanic acid and pristanic acid (By similarity). Does not activate C24 bile acids, cholate and chenodeoxycholate (By similarity). In vitro, activates 3-alpha,7- alpha,12-alpha-trihydroxy- 5-beta-cholestanate (THCA), the C27 precursor of cholic acid deriving from the de novo synthesis from cholesterol (By similarity). Exhibits long-chain fatty acids (LCFA) transp [...] (620 aa) |
