Nfatc1 | Nuclear factor of activated T-cells, cytoplasmic 1; Plays a role in the inducible expression of cytokine genes in T-cells, especially in the induction of the IL-2 or IL-4 gene transcription. Also controls gene expression in embryonic cardiac cells. Could regulate not only the activation and proliferation but also the differentiation and programmed death of T- lymphocytes as well as lymphoid and non-lymphoid cells (By similarity). Required for osteoclastogenesis and regulates many genes important for osteoclast differentiation and function. (939 aa) | ||||
Pigw | Phosphatidylinositol-glycan biosynthesis class W protein; Required for the transport of GPI-anchored proteins to the plasma membrane. Probable acetyltransferase, which acetylates the inositol ring of phosphatidylinositol during biosynthesis of GPI- anchor. Acetylation during GPI-anchor biosynthesis is not essential for the subsequent mannosylation and is usually removed soon after the attachment of GPIs to proteins. (503 aa) |
