Sox3 | Transcription factor SOX-3; Transcription factor required during the formation of the hypothalamo-pituitary axis. May function as a switch in neuronal development. Keeps neural cells undifferentiated by counteracting the activity of proneural proteins and suppresses neuronal differentiation. Required also within the pharyngeal epithelia for craniofacial morphogenesis. Controls a genetic switch in male development. Is necessary for initiating male sex determination by directing the development of supporting cell precursors (pre-Sertoli cells) as Sertoli rather than granulosa cells. (450 aa) | ||||
Ing1 | Inhibitor of growth protein 1; Isoform 1 inhibits p53-dependent transcriptional activation and may function as an oncoprotein. Isoform 2 acts as a negative growth regulator by cooperating with p53 in transcriptional activation of p53- responsive genes and may act as a tumor suppressor. Belongs to the ING family. (279 aa) |
