Egr2 | E3 SUMO-protein ligase EGR2; Sequence-specific DNA-binding transcription factor. Binds to two specific DNA sites located in the promoter region of HOXA4. Binds to the promoter region of ERBB2. May play a role in the regulation of hindbrain segmentation, might act in combination with the Hox network to specify odd and even rhombomeres, and might participate in the control of the expression of some of the homeobox containing genes. Belongs to the EGR C2H2-type zinc-finger protein family. (470 aa) | ||||
Cbx8 | Chromobox protein homolog 8; Component of a Polycomb group (PcG) multiprotein PRC1-like complex, a complex class required to maintain the transcriptionally repressive state of many genes, including Hox genes, throughout development. PcG PRC1 complex acts via chromatin remodeling and modification of histones; it mediates monoubiquitination of histone H2A 'Lys-119', rendering chromatin heritably changed in its expressibility (By similarity).
