Zfp281 | Zinc finger protein 281; Transcription repressor that plays a role in regulation of embryonic stem cells (ESCs) differentiation. Required for ESCs differentiation and acts by mediating autorepression of NANOG in ESCs: binds to the NANOG promoter and promotes association of NANOG protein to its own promoter and recruits the NuRD complex, which deacetylates histones. Not required for establishement and maintenance of ESCs. Represses the transcription of a number of genes including GAST, ODC1 and VIM. Binds to the G-rich box in the enhancer region of these genes.

Rcn3 | Reticulocalbin-3; Probable molecular chaperone assisting protein biosynthesis and transport in the endoplasmic reticulum. Required for the proper biosynthesis and transport of pulmonary surfactant- associated protein A/SP-A, pulmonary surfactant-associated protein D/SP-D and the lipid transporter ABCA3. By regulating both the proper expression and the degradation through the endoplasmic reticulum-associated protein degradation pathway of these proteins plays a crucial role in pulmonary surfactant homeostasis. Has an anti-fibrotic activity by negatively regulating the secretion of type [...] (328 aa) |
