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) | ||||
Thsd4 | Thrombospondin type-1 domain-containing protein 4; Promotes FBN1 matrix assembly. Attenuates TGFB signaling, possibly by accelerating the sequestration of large latent complexes of TGFB or active TGFB by FBN1 microfibril assembly, thereby negatively regulating the expression of TGFB regulatory targets, such as POSTN.
