Cbx1 | Chromobox protein homolog 1; Component of heterochromatin. Recognizes and binds histone H3 tails methylated at 'Lys-9', leading to epigenetic repression. Interaction with lamin B receptor (LBR) can contribute to the association of the heterochromatin with the inner nuclear membrane. (185 aa) | ||||
Mpeg1 | Macrophage-expressed gene 1 protein; Plays a key role in the innate immune response following bacterial infection by polymerizing and inserting into the bacterial surface to form pores. By breaching the surface of phagocytosed bacteria, allows antimicrobial effectors to enter the bacterial periplasmic space and degrade bacterial proteins such as superoxide dismutase sodC which contributes to bacterial virulence. Shows antibacterial activity against a wide spectrum of Gram-positive, Gram-negative and acid-fast bacteria. Reduces the viability of the intracytosolic pathogen L.monocytogene [...] (720 aa) |
