Sox30 | Transcription factor SOX-30; Acts as both a transcriptional activator and repressor. Binds to the DNA sequence 5'-ACAAT- 3' and shows a preference for guanine residues surrounding this core motif. Binds to its own promoter and activates its own transcription. Required to activate the expression of postmeiotic genes involved in spermiogenesis. Binds to the promoter region of CTNNB1 and represses its transcription which leads to inhibition of Wnt signaling. Also inhibits Wnt signaling by binding to the CTNNB1 protein, preventing interaction of CTNNB1 with TCF7L2/TCF4 (By similarity). (782 aa) | ||||
Lrrc8b | Volume-regulated anion channel subunit LRRC8B; Non-essential component of the volume-regulated anion channel (VRAC, also named VSOAC channel), an anion channel required to maintain a constant cell volume in response to extracellular or intracellular osmotic changes. The VRAC channel conducts iodide better than chloride and can also conduct organic osmolytes like taurine. Channel activity requires LRRC8A plus at least one other family member (LRRC8B, LRRC8C, LRRC8D or LRRC8E); channel characteristics depend on the precise subunit composition. (803 aa) |
