Eomes | Eomesodermin homolog; Functions as a transcriptional activator playing a crucial role during development. Functions in trophoblast differentiation and later in gastrulation, regulating both mesoderm delamination and endoderm specification. Plays a role in brain development being required for the specification and the proliferation of the intermediate progenitor cells and their progeny in the cerebral cortex. Also involved in the differentiation of CD8+ T-cells during immune response regulating the expression of lytic effector genes. (707 aa) | ||||
Dbf4 | Protein DBF4 homolog A; Regulatory subunit for CDC7 which activates its kinase activity thereby playing a central role DNA in replication and cell proliferation. Required for progression of S phase. The complex CDC7- DBF4A selectively phosphorylates MCM2 subunit at 'Ser-40' and 'Ser-53' and then is involved in regulating the initiation of DNA replication during cell cycle. (663 aa) |
