Eed | Polycomb protein EED; Polycomb group (PcG) protein. Component of the PRC2/EED-EZH2 complex, which methylates 'Lys-9' and 'Lys-27' of histone H3, leading to transcriptional repression of the affected target gene. Also recognizes 'Lys-26' trimethylated histone H1 with the effect of inhibiting PRC2 complex methyltransferase activity on nucleosomal histone H3 'Lys-27', whereas H3 'Lys-27' recognition has the opposite effect, enabling the propagation of this repressive mark (By similarity). The PRC2/EED-EZH2 complex may also serve as a recruiting platform for DNA methyltransferases, thereby [...] (441 aa) | ||||
Jazf1 | Juxtaposed with another zinc finger protein 1; Acts as a transcriptional corepressor of orphan nuclear receptor NR2C2 (By similarity). Inhibits expression of the gluconeogenesis enzyme PCK2 through inhibition of NR2C2 activity. Also involved in transcriptional activation of NAMPT by promoting expression of PPARA and PPARD. Plays a role in lipid metabolism by suppressing lipogenesis, increasing lipolysis and decreasing lipid accumulation in adipose tissue. Plays a role in glucose homeostasis by improving glucose metabolism and insulin sensitivity. (243 aa) |
