Mphosph8 | M-phase phosphoprotein 8; Heterochromatin component that specifically recognizes and binds methylated 'Lys-9' of histone H3 (H3K9me) and promotes recruitment of proteins that mediate epigenetic repression. Mediates recruitment of the HUSH complex to H3K9me3 sites: the HUSH complex is recruited to genomic loci rich in H3K9me3 and is required to maintain transcriptional silencing by promoting recruitment of SETDB1, a histone methyltransferase that mediates further deposition of H3K9me3, as well as MORC2. Binds H3K9me and promotes DNA methylation by recruiting DNMT3A to target CpG sites; [...] (858 aa) | ||||
Sox30 | Transcription factor SOX-30; Acts as both a transcriptional activator and repressor. Binds to the DNA sequence 5'-ACAAT- 3' and shows a preference for guanine residues surrounding this core motif. Binds to its own promoter and activates its own transcription. Required to activate the expression of postmeiotic genes involved in spermiogenesis. Binds to the promoter region of CTNNB1 and represses its transcription which leads to inhibition of Wnt signaling. Also inhibits Wnt signaling by binding to the CTNNB1 protein, preventing interaction of CTNNB1 with TCF7L2/TCF4 (By similarity). (782 aa) |
