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) | ||||
Snx19 | Sorting nexin-19; Plays a role in intracellular vesicle trafficking and exocytosis. May play a role in maintaining insulin- containing dense core vesicles in pancreatic beta-cells and in preventing their degradation. May play a role in insulin secretion. Interacts with membranes containing phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate (PtdIns(3P)). Belongs to the sorting nexin family. (997 aa) |
