Zic3 | Zinc finger protein ZIC 3; Acts as transcriptional activator. Required in the earliest stages in both axial midline development and left-right (LR) asymmetry specification. Binds to the minimal GLI-consensus sequence 5'-GGGTGGTC- 3'; Belongs to the GLI C2H2-type zinc-finger protein family. (466 aa) | ||||
Pde8a | High affinity cAMP-specific and IBMX-insensitive 3',5'-cyclic phosphodiesterase 8A; Hydrolyzes the second messenger cAMP, which is a key regulator of many important physiological processes. May be involved in maintaining basal levels of the cyclic nucleotide and/or in the cAMP regulation of germ cell development. Binding to RAF1 reduces RAF1 'Ser- 259' inhibitory-phosphorylation and stimulates RAF1-dependent EGF- activated ERK-signaling. Protects against cell death induced by hydrogen peroxide and staurosporine. (823 aa) |
