Pou3f1 | POU domain, class 3, transcription factor 1; Transcription factor that binds to the octamer motif (5'- ATTTGCAT-3'). Thought to be involved in early embryogenesis and neurogenesis. (449 aa) | ||||
Aicda | Single-stranded DNA cytosine deaminase; Single-stranded DNA-specific cytidine deaminase. Involved in somatic hypermutation (SHM), gene conversion, and class-switch recombination (CSR) in B-lymphocytes by deaminating C to U during transcription of Ig-variable (V) and Ig-switch (S) region DNA. Required for several crucial steps of B-cell terminal differentiation necessary for efficient antibody responses. May also play a role in the epigenetic regulation of gene expression by participating in DNA demethylation. (198 aa) |
