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) | ||||
Uhrf2 | E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase UHRF2; E3 SUMO-, but not ubiquitin-, protein ligase for ZNF131 (By similarity). E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase that is an intermolecular hub protein in the cell cycle network. Ubiquitinates cyclins, CCND1 and CCNE1, in an apparently phosphorylation-independent manner and induces G1 arrest. Also ubiquitinates PCNP leading to its degradation by the proteasome. Through cooperative DNA and histone binding, may contribute to a tighter epigenetic control of gene expression in differentiated cells. (803 aa) |
