Tet1 | Methylcytosine dioxygenase TET1; Dioxygenase that catalyzes the conversion of the modified genomic base 5-methylcytosine (5mC) into 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) and plays a key role in active DNA demethylation. Also mediates subsequent conversion of 5hmC into 5-formylcytosine (5fC), and conversion of 5fC to 5-carboxylcytosine (5caC). Conversion of 5mC into 5hmC, 5fC and 5caC probably constitutes the first step in cytosine demethylation. Methylation at the C5 position of cytosine bases is an epigenetic modification of the mammalian genome which plays an important role in transcription [...] (2039 aa) | ||||
Klf16 | Krueppel-like factor 16; Transcription factor that binds GC and GT boxes in the D1A, D2 and D3 dopamine receptor promoters and displaces Sp1 and Sp3 from these sequences. It modulates dopaminergic transmission in the brain by repressing or activating transcription from several different promoters depending on cellular context; Belongs to the Sp1 C2H2-type zinc-finger protein family. (251 aa) |
