Ctcfl | Transcriptional repressor CTCFL; Testis-specific DNA binding protein responsible for insulator function, nuclear architecture and transcriptional control, which probably acts by recruiting epigenetic chromatin modifiers. Plays a key role in gene imprinting in male germline, by participating in the establishment of differential methylation at the IGF2/H19 imprinted control region (ICR). Directly binds the unmethylated H19 ICR and recruits the PRMT7 methyltransferase, leading to methylate histone H4 'Arg-3' to form H4R3sme2. This probably leads to recruit de novo DNA methyltransferases a [...] (636 aa) | ||||
Inmt | Indolethylamine N-methyltransferase; Catalyzes the N-methylation of tryptamine and structurally related compounds (By similarity). Functions as thioether S- methyltransferase and is active with a variety of thioethers and the corresponding selenium and tellurium compounds, including 3- methylthiopropionaldehyde, dimethyl selenide, dimethyl telluride, 2- methylthioethylamine, 2-methylthioethanol, methyl-n-propyl sulfide and diethyl sulfide. Plays an important role in the detoxification of selenium compounds; Belongs to the class I-like SAM-binding methyltransferase superfamily. NNMT/PNM [...] (264 aa) |
