Irf8 | Interferon regulatory factor 8; Plays a role as a transcriptional activator or repressor (By similarity). Specifically binds to the upstream regulatory region of type I IFN and IFN-inducible MHC class I genes (the interferon consensus sequence (ICS)). Plays a negative regulatory role in cells of the immune system. Involved in CD8(+) dendritic cell differentiation by forming a complex with the BATF-JUNB heterodimer in immune cells, leading to recognition of AICE sequence (5'-TGAnTCA/GAAA-3'), an immune-specific regulatory element, followed by cooperative binding of BATF and IRF8 and act [...] (424 aa) | ||||
Nit2 | Omega-amidase NIT2; Possesses omega-amidase activity. The role of omega-amidase is to remove potentially toxic intermediates by converting 2-oxoglutaramate and 2-oxosuccinamate to biologically useful 2-oxoglutarate and oxaloacetate, respectively. Can hydrolyze glutaramate, succinate and gamma- monomethyl-alpha-ketoglutarate in vitro. (276 aa) |
