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) | ||||
Tef | Thyrotroph embryonic factor; Transcription factor that binds to and transactivates the TSHB promoter. Binds to a minimal DNA-binding sequence 5'- [TC][AG][AG]TTA[TC][AG]-3' (By similarity). Also activates the telokin promoter in smooth muscle-specific and calcium-dependent manner. (301 aa) |
