Irf2bp2 | Interferon regulatory factor 2-binding protein 2; Acts as a transcriptional corepressor in a IRF2-dependent manner, this repression is not mediated by histone deacetylase activities. Represses the NFAT1-dependent transactivation of NFAT- responsive promoters. Acts as a coactivator of VEGFA expression in cardiac and skeletal muscles. Plays a role in immature B-cell differentiation (By similarity). (570 aa) | ||||
Gdf15 | Growth/differentiation factor 15; Regulates food intake, energy expenditure and body weight in response to metabolic and toxin-induced stresses. Binds to its receptor, GFRAL, and activates GFRAL-expressing neurons localized in the area postrema and nucleus tractus solitarius of the brainstem. It then triggers the activation of neurons localized within the parabrachial nucleus and central amygdala, which contitutes part of the 'emergency circuit' that shapes feeding responses to stressful conditions. On hepatocytes, inhibits growth hormone signaling. (303 aa) |
