Smad1 | Mothers against decapentaplegic homolog 1; Transcriptional modulator activated by BMP (bone morphogenetic proteins) type 1 receptor kinase. SMAD1 is a receptor- regulated SMAD (R-SMAD) (By similarity). May play a role in the initiation and maintenance of spermatogenesis. SMAD1/OAZ1/PSMB4 complex mediates the degradation of the CREBBP/EP300 repressor SNIP1 (By similarity). May act synergistically with SMAD4 and YY1 in bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)-mediated cardiac-specific gene expression. (465 aa) | ||||
Awat2 | Acyl-CoA wax alcohol acyltransferase 2; Acyltransferase that catalyzes the formation of ester bonds between fatty alcohols and fatty acyl-CoAs to form wax monoesters. Shows a preference for medium chain acyl-CoAs from C12 to C16 in length and fatty alcohols shorter than C20, as the acyl donor and acceptor, respectively. Also possesses acyl-CoA retinol acyltransferase (ARAT) activity that catalyzes 11-cis- specific retinyl ester synthesis. Shows higher catalytic efficiency toward 11-cis-retinol versus 9-cis-retinol, 13- cis-retinol and all-trans-retinol substrates (By similarity). (333 aa) |
