Myod1 | Myoblast determination protein 1; Acts as a transcriptional activator that promotes transcription of muscle-specific target genes and plays a role in muscle differentiation. Together with MYF5 and MYOG, co-occupies muscle-specific gene promoter core region during myogenesis. Induces fibroblasts to differentiate into myoblasts. Interacts with and is inhibited by the twist protein. This interaction probably involves the basic domains of both proteins. (318 aa) | ||||
Taar5 | Trace amine-associated receptor 5; Olfactory receptor specific for trimethylamine, a trace amine enriched in the urine of male mice, playing a role in social behavior. Trimethylamine is present at high concentration in the urine of male mice after puberty and acts as an attractant. This receptor is probably mediated by the G(s)-class of G-proteins which activate adenylate cyclase. (337 aa) |
