Isl1 | Insulin gene enhancer protein ISL-1; DNA-binding transcriptional activator. Recognizes and binds to the consensus octamer binding site 5'-ATAATTAA-3' in promoter of target genes. Plays a fundamental role in the gene regulatory network essential for retinal ganglion cell (RGC) differentiation. Cooperates with the transcription factor POU4F2 to achieve maximal levels of expression of RGC target genes and RGC fate specification in the developing retina. Involved in the specification of motor neurons in cooperation with LHX3 and LDB1. Binds to insulin gene enhancer sequences (By similarity [...] (349 aa) | ||||
Acot4 | Peroxisomal succinyl-coenzyme A thioesterase; Acyl-CoA thioesterases are a group of enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of acyl-CoAs to the free fatty acid and coenzyme A (CoASH), providing the potential to regulate intracellular levels of acyl-CoAs, free fatty acids and CoASH. In contrast to human peroxisomal succinyl-coenzyme A thioesterase/ACOT4, mouse ACOT4 is essentially a succinyl-CoA thioesterase with no activity with medium to long chain saturated acyl- CoAs and with a low activity toward glutaryl-CoA. Belongs to the C/M/P thioester hydrolase family. (421 aa) |
