Zfp322a | Zinc finger protein 322; Transcriptional activator. Important for maintenance of pluripotency in embryonic stem cells. Binds directly to the POU5F1 distal enhancer and the NANOG proximal promoter, and enhances expression of both genes. Can also bind to numerous other gene promoters and regulates expression of many other pluripotency factors, either directly or indirectly. Promotes inhibition of MAPK signaling during embryonic stem cell differentiation. (410 aa) | ||||
Arid3a | AT-rich interactive domain-containing protein 3A; Transcription factor involved in B-cell differentiation. Binds a VH promoter proximal site necessary for induced mu-heavy-chain transcription. Binds the minor groove of a restricted ATC sequence that is sufficient for nuclear matrix association. This sequence motif is present in matrix-associating regions (MARS) proximal to the promoter and flanking E mu. Activates E mu-driven transcription by binding these sites. May be involved in the control of cell cycle progression by the RB1/E2F1 pathway. (601 aa) |
