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) | ||||
Atf7ip | Activating transcription factor 7-interacting protein 1; Recruiter that couples transcriptional factors to general transcription apparatus and thereby modulates transcription regulation and chromatin formation. Can both act as an activator or a repressor depending on the context. Required for HUSH-mediated heterochromatin formation and gene silencing (By similarity). Mediates MBD1-dependent transcriptional repression, probably by recruiting complexes containing SETDB1. Stabilizes SETDB1, is required to stimulate histone methyltransferase activity of SETDB1 and facilitates the conversio [...] (1306 aa) |
