trx | Histone-lysine N-methyltransferase trithorax; Histone methyltransferase that trimethylates 'Lys-9' of histone H3 (H3K9me3). H3 'Lys-9' methylation represents a specific tag for epigenetic transcriptional activation. Functions in segment determination through interaction with genes of bithorax (BX-C) and antennapedia (ANT-C) complexes. Acts as an activator of BX-C. Involved in the very early regulation of homeotic genes expressed only in the posterior region of the embryo. (3726 aa) | ||||
wgn | Tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member wengen; Receptor for egr. Involved in induction of apoptosis by triggering JNK signaling. Mediates the tumor suppressor activity of egr which eliminates oncogenic cells from epithelia, thereby maintaining epithelial integrity. Following UV-induced epidermal damage, binds to egr released from apoptotic epidermal cells and plays a role in development of thermal allodynia, a responsiveness to subthreshold thermal stimuli which are not normally perceived as noxious. Together with Moe, involved in control of axon targeting of R8 and R2-R5 ph [...] (343 aa) |
