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) | ||||
Mpeg1 | Macrophage-expressed gene 1 protein; Plays a key role in the innate immune response following bacterial infection by polymerizing and inserting into the bacterial surface to form pores. By breaching the surface of phagocytosed bacteria, allows antimicrobial effectors to enter the bacterial periplasmic space and degrade bacterial proteins such as superoxide dismutase sodC which contributes to bacterial virulence. Shows antibacterial activity against a wide spectrum of Gram-positive, Gram-negative and acid-fast bacteria. Reduces the viability of the intracytosolic pathogen L.monocytogene [...] (720 aa) |
