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) | ||||
Plxna2 | Plexin-A2; Coreceptor for SEMA3A and SEMA6A. Necessary for signaling by SEMA6A and class 3 semaphorins and subsequent remodeling of the cytoskeleton. Plays a role in axon guidance, invasive growth and cell migration. Class 3 semaphorins bind to a complex composed of a neuropilin and a plexin. The plexin modulates the affinity of the complex for specific semaphorins, and its cytoplasmic domain is required for the activation of down-stream signaling events in the cytoplasm. (1894 aa) |
