Mbd3 | Methyl-CpG-binding domain protein 3; Acts as transcriptional repressor and plays a role in gene silencing. Does not bind DNA by itself. Binds to DNA with a preference for sites containing methylated CpG dinucleotides (in vitro). Binds to a lesser degree DNA containing unmethylated CpG dinucleotides (By similarity). Recruits histone deacetylases and DNA methyltransferases. (285 aa) | ||||
Adcy1 | Adenylate cyclase type 1; Catalyzes the formation of the signaling molecule cAMP in response to G-protein signaling. Mediates responses to increased cellular Ca(2+)/calmodulin levels. May be involved in regulatory processes in the central nervous system. May play a role in memory and learning. Plays a role in the regulation of the circadian rhythm of daytime contrast sensitivity probably by modulating the rhythmic synthesis of cyclic AMP in the retina. (1118 aa) |
