Elk4 | ETS domain-containing protein Elk-4; Involved in both transcriptional activation and repression. Interaction with SIRT7 leads to recruitment and stabilization of SIRT7 at promoters, followed by deacetylation of histone H3 at 'Lys-18' (H3K18Ac) and subsequent transcription repression. Forms a ternary complex with the serum response factor (SRF). Requires DNA-bound SRF for ternary complex formation and makes extensive DNA contacts to the 5'side of SRF, but does not bind DNA autonomously (By similarity). Belongs to the ETS family.

Slc25a44 | Solute carrier family 25 member 44; Mitochondrial solute transporter which transports branched- chain amino acid (BCAA; valine, leucine and isoleucine) into mitochondria in brown adipose tissue (BAT). BAT is involved in BCAA catabolism and actively utilizes BCAA in the mitochondria for thermogenesis. (333 aa) |
