Rara | Retinoic acid receptor alpha; Receptor for retinoic acid. Retinoic acid receptors bind as heterodimers to their target response elements in response to their ligands, all-trans or 9-cis retinoic acid, and regulate gene expression in various biological processes. The RXR/RAR heterodimers bind to the retinoic acid response elements (RARE) composed of tandem 5'-AGGTCA-3' sites known as DR1-DR5. In the absence of ligand, the RXR-RAR heterodimers associate with a multiprotein complex containing transcription corepressors that induce histone deacetylation, chromatin condensation and transcri [...] (462 aa) | ||||
Ubp1 | Upstream-binding protein 1; Functions as a transcriptional activator in a promoter context-dependent manner. Involved in regulation of the alpha-globin gene in erythroid cells. Activation of the alpha-globin promoter in erythroid cells is via synergistic interaction with TFCP2. Functions as a trans-acting factor that regulates the domestic strain CYP2D9 gene through specific association with the regulatory element SDI-A1. Binding to SDI-A1 depends on the type of nucleotide at position 299; binding is abolished by a nucleotide substitution at this position. Modulates the placental expre [...] (540 aa) |
