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) | ||||
Abcg1 | ATP-binding cassette sub-family G member 1; Catalyzes the efflux of phospholipids such as sphingomyelin, cholesterol and its oxygenated derivatives like 7beta- hydroxycholesterol and this transport is coupled to hydrlysis of ATP. The lipid efflux is ALB-dependent. Is an active component of the macrophage lipid export complex. Could also be involved in intracellular lipid transport processes. The role in cellular lipid homeostasis may not be limited to macrophages. Prevents cell death by transporting cytotoxic 7beta-hydroxycholesterol (By similarity). (666 aa) |
