Mybl1 | Myb-related protein A; Transcription factor that specifically recognizes the sequence 5'-YAAC[GT]G-3'. Acts as a master regulator of male meiosis by promoting expression of piRNAs: activates expression of both piRNA precursor RNAs and expression of protein-coding genes involved in piRNA metabolism, such as PIWIL1. The piRNA metabolic process mediates the repression of transposable elements during meiosis by forming complexes composed of piRNAs and Piwi proteins and governs the methylation and subsequent repression of transposons, which is essential for the germline integrity. Transcrip [...] (751 aa) | ||||
Jmjd7 | Bifunctional peptidase and (3S)-lysyl hydroxylase Jmjd7; Bifunctional enzyme that acts both as an endopeptidase and 2- oxoglutarate-dependent monoxygenase (By similarity). Endopeptidase that cleaves histones N-terminal tails at the carboxyl side of methylated arginine or lysine residues, to generate 'tailless nucleosomes', which may trigger transcription elongation. Preferentially recognizes and cleaves monomethylated and dimethylated arginine residues of histones H2, H3 and H4. After initial cleavage, continues to digest histones tails via its aminopeptidase activity. Additionally, m [...] (316 aa) |
