Prdm14 | PR domain zinc finger protein 14; Transcription factor that has both positive and negative roles on transcription (By similarity). Plays a role in cellular pluripotency. Essential for germ cell development at 2 levels: the reacquisition of potential pluripotency, including SOX2 up-regulation, and successful epigenetic reprogramming, characterized by EHMT1 repression. Its association with CBFA2T2 is required for the functions in pluripotency and germ cell formation; Belongs to the class V-like SAM-binding methyltransferase superfamily. (561 aa) | ||||
Pnkp | Bifunctional polynucleotide phosphatase/kinase; Plays a key role in the repair of DNA damage, functioning as part of both the non-homologous end-joining (NHEJ) and base excision repair (BER) pathways. Through its two catalytic activities, PNK ensures that DNA termini are compatible with extension and ligation by either removing 3'-phosphates from, or by phosphorylating 5'-hydroxyl groups on, the ribose sugar of the DNA backbone.
