Dpy30 | Protein dpy-30 homolog; As part of the MLL1/MLL complex, involved in the methylation of histone H3 at 'Lys-4', particularly trimethylation. Histone H3 'Lys- 4' methylation represents a specific tag for epigenetic transcriptional activation. May play some role in histone H3 acetylation. In embryonic stem (ES) cells, plays a crucial role in the differentiation potential, particularly along the neural lineage, regulating gene induction and histone H3 'Lys-4' methylation at key developmental loci, including that mediated by retinoic acid. Does not affect ES cell self-renewal. May also play [...] (99 aa) | ||||
Smarcd1 | SWI/SNF-related matrix-associated actin-dependent regulator of chromatin subfamily D member 1; Involved in transcriptional activation and repression of select genes by chromatin remodeling (alteration of DNA-nucleosome topology). Component of SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complexes that carry out key enzymatic activities, changing chromatin structure by altering DNA-histone contacts within a nucleosome in an ATP-dependent manner (By similarity). Belongs to the neural progenitors-specific chromatin remodeling complex (npBAF complex) and the neuron-specific chromatin remodeling complex (n [...] (515 aa) |
