Kdm2a | Lysine-specific demethylase 2A; Histone demethylase that specifically demethylates 'Lys-36' of histone H3, thereby playing a central role in histone code. Preferentially demethylates dimethylated H3 'Lys-36' residue while it has weak or no activity for mono- and tri-methylated H3 'Lys-36'. May also recognize and bind to some phosphorylated proteins and promote their ubiquitination and degradation. Required to maintain the heterochromatic state. Associates with centromeres and represses transcription of small non-coding RNAs that are encoded by the clusters of satellite repeats at the c [...] (1161 aa) | ||||
Spns2 | Protein spinster homolog 2; Acts a a crucial lysosphingolipid sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) transporter involved in S1P secretion and function. S1P is a bioactive signaling molecule that regulates many physiological processes important for the development and for the immune system. Regulates levels of S1P and the S1P gradient that exists between the high circulating concentrations of S1P and low tissue levels that control lymphocyte trafficking. (549 aa) |
