Binds to G-doublets in an A/T- rich environment; the preferred motif is a tandem repeat of 5'-. ATTGGTTA-3' combined with a 5'-TTATTA-3' box. Binds to nucleosomes (By similarity). Binds to chromatin and interacts selectively with histone H3 that is not methylated at 'L [...] (552 aa) | ||||
Bst1 | ADP-ribosyl cyclase/cyclic ADP-ribose hydrolase 2; Synthesizes the second messengers cyclic ADP-ribose and nicotinate-adenine dinucleotide phosphate, the former a second messenger that elicits calcium release from intracellular stores. May be involved in pre-B-cell growth. (311 aa) |
