Bhlhe40 | Class E basic helix-loop-helix protein 40; Transcriptional repressor involved in the regulation of the circadian rhythm by negatively regulating the activity of the clock genes and clock-controlled genes. Acts as the negative limb of a novel autoregulatory feedback loop (DEC loop) which differs from the one formed by the PER and CRY transcriptional repressors (PER/CRY loop). Both these loops are interlocked as it represses the expression of PER1/2 and in turn is repressed by PER1/2 and CRY1/2 (By similarity). Represses the activity of the circadian transcriptional activator: CLOCK- ARN [...] (411 aa) | ||||
Abca17 | ATP-binding cassette sub-family A member 17; Promotes cholesterol efflux from sperm which renders sperm capable of fertilization. Has also been shown to decrease levels of intracellular esterified neutral lipids including cholesteryl esters, fatty acid esters and triacylglycerols. (1733 aa) |
