Crx | Cone-rod homeobox protein; Transcription factor that binds and transactivates the sequence 5'-TAATC[CA]-3' which is found upstream of several photoreceptor-specific genes, including the opsin genes. Acts synergistically with other transcription factors, such as NRL, RORB and RAX, to regulate photoreceptor cell-specific gene transcription. Essential for the maintenance of mammalian photoreceptors. (323 aa) | ||||
Spry2 | Protein sprouty homolog 2; May function as an antagonist of fibroblast growth factor (FGF) pathways and may negatively modulate respiratory organogenesis; Belongs to the sprouty family. (315 aa) |
