Foxa1 | Hepatocyte nuclear factor 3-alpha; Transcription factor that is involved in embryonic development, establishment of tissue-specific gene expression and regulation of gene expression in differentiated tissues. Is thought to act as a 'pioneer' factor opening the compacted chromatin for other proteins through interactions with nucleosomal core histones and thereby replacing linker histones at target enhancer and/or promoter sites. Binds DNA with the consensus sequence 5'- [AC]A[AT]T[AG]TT[GT][AG][CT]T[CT]-3' (By similarity). Proposed to play a role in translating the epigenetic signatures [...] (468 aa) | ||||
Ubr3 | E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase UBR3; E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase which is a component of the N-end rule pathway. Does not bind to proteins bearing specific N-terminal residues that are destabilizing according to the N- end rule, leading to their ubiquitination and subsequent degradation. May play a role in Shh signaling by mediating the ubiquitination of Kif7. May be important for MYH9 function in certain tissues, possibly by regulating the ubiquitination of MYH9 and consequently affecting its interaction with MYO7A. Belongs to the UBR1 family. (1889 aa) |
