Elba2 | Early boundary activity protein 2; The heterotrimeric Elba complex is required for chromatin domain boundary function during early embryogenesis. It binds to a 8-bp sequence 5'-CCAATAAG-3' in the Fab-7 insulator or boundary element in the bithorax complex and contributes to its insulator or boundary activity. Elba2 can act as a transcriptional repressor and binds the palindromic sequence 5'-CCAATTGG-3' to mediate transcriptional repression. (381 aa) | ||||
PEK | Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2-alpha kinase; Pancreatic eIF-2alpha kinase (PEK) encodes an endoplasmic reticulum (ER) transmembrane kinase and a component of the integrated stress response. During ER stress the product of PEK phosphorylates the translation initiation factor encoded by eIF2alpha resulting in the inhibition of most cap-dependent translation. This is especially important during the development of secretory tissues and the response to cellular stress; Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. Ser/Thr protein kinase family. GCN2 subfamily.
