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) | ||||
Gpr31b | 12-(S)-hydroxy-5,8,10,14-eicosatetraenoic acid receptor; High-affinity receptor for 12-(S)-hydroxy-5,8,10,14- eicosatetraenoic acid (12-S-HETE). 12-(S)-HETE is an arachidonic acid metabolite secreted by platelets and tumor cells, and known to induce endothelial cells retraction allowing invasive cell access to the subendothelial matrix, which is a critical step for extravasation or metastasis. Ligand-binding lead to activation of ERK1/2 (MAPK3/MAPK1), MEK, and NF-kappa-B (By similarity). (319 aa) |
