Kmt2b | Histone-lysine N-methyltransferase 2B; Histone methyltransferase that methylates 'Lys-4' of histone H3 (By similarity). H3 'Lys-4' methylation represents a specific tag for epigenetic transcriptional activation (By similarity). Plays a central role in beta-globin locus transcription regulation by being recruited by NFE2 (By similarity). Plays an important role in controlling bulk H3K4me during oocyte growth and preimplantation development. Required during the transcriptionally active period of oocyte growth for the establishment and/or maintenance of bulk H3K4 trimethylation (H3K4me3), [...] (2713 aa) | ||||
Piwil4 | Piwi-like protein 4; Plays a central role during spermatogenesis by repressing transposable elements and preventing their mobilization, which is essential for the germline integrity. Acts via the piRNA metabolic process, which 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. Directly binds piRNAs, a class of 24 to 30 nucleotide RNAs that are generated by a Dicer-independent mechanism and are primarily derived from transposons and other repeated [...] (878 aa) |
