Smad2 | Mothers against decapentaplegic homolog 2; Receptor-regulated SMAD (R-SMAD) that is an intracellular signal transducer and transcriptional modulator activated by TGF-beta (transforming growth factor) and activin type 1 receptor kinases. Binds the TRE element in the promoter region of many genes that are regulated by TGF-beta and, on formation of the SMAD2/SMAD4 complex, activates transcription. May act as a tumor suppressor in colorectal carcinoma. Positively regulates PDPK1 kinase activity by stimulating its dissociation from the 14-3-3 protein YWHAQ which acts as a negative regulator [...] (467 aa) | ||||
S100a16 | Protein S100-A16; Calcium-binding protein. Binds one calcium ion per monomer. Can promote differentiation of adipocytes (in vitro). Overexpression in 3T3-L1 preadipocytes increases their proliferation, enhances adipogenesis and reduces insulin-stimulated glucose uptake. (124 aa) |
