Kdm2b | Lysine-specific demethylase 2B; Histone demethylase that demethylates 'Lys-4' and 'Lys-36' of histone H3, thereby playing a central role in histone code. Preferentially demethylates trimethylated H3 'Lys-4' and dimethylated H3 'Lys-36' residue while it has weak or no activity for mono- and tri- methylated H3 'Lys-36'. Preferentially binds the transcribed region of ribosomal RNA and represses the transcription of ribosomal RNA genes which inhibits cell growth and proliferation (By similarity). May also serve as a substrate-recognition component of the SCF (SKP1-CUL1-F-box protein)-type [...] (1309 aa) | ||||
Bmp8a | Bone morphogenetic protein 8A; Induces cartilage and bone formation. May be the osteoinductive factor responsible for the phenomenon of epithelial osteogenesis. Plays a role in calcium regulation and bone homeostasis (By similarity). Has only marginal osteoinductive activity in mesenchymal progenitor and osteoprogenior cells but shows activity in committed osteoblastic cells. (412 aa) |
