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.

Ror1 | Inactive tyrosine-protein kinase transmembrane receptor ROR1; Has very low kinase activity in vitro and is unlikely to function as a tyrosine kinase in vivo (By similarity). Receptor for ligand WNT5A which activate downstream NFkB signaling pathway and may result in the inhibition of WNT3A-mediated signaling (By similarity). In inner ear, crucial for spiral ganglion neurons to innervate auditory hair cells. (937 aa) |
