Nelfb | Negative elongation factor B; Essential component of the NELF complex, a complex that negatively regulates the elongation of transcription by RNA polymerase II (Pol II). The NELF complex, which acts via an association with the DSIF complex and causes transcriptional pausing, is counteracted by the P-TEFb kinase complex (By similarity). May be able to induce chromatin unfolding (By similarity). Essential for early embryogenesis; plays an important role in maintaining the undifferentiated state of embryonic stem cells (ESCs) by preventing unscheduled expression of developmental genes.

Peg3 | Paternally-expressed gene 3 protein; Induces apoptosis in cooperation with SIAH1A. Acts as a mediator between p53/TP53 and BAX in a neuronal death pathway that is activated by DNA damage. Acts synergistically with TRAF2 and inhibits TNF induced apoptosis through activation of NF-kappa-B. Plays a role in regulating maternal behavior and offspring growth. Belongs to the krueppel C2H2-type zinc-finger protein family. (1571 aa) |
