Ubx | Homeotic protein ultrabithorax; Sequence-specific transcription factor which is part of a developmental regulatory system that provides cells with specific positional identities on the anterior-posterior axis. Binds the consensus region 5'-TTAAT[GT][GA]-3'. This homeotic protein controls development of the cells in the posterior thoracic and first abdominal segments. It activates the synthesis of the decapentaplegic (DPP) growth factor; Belongs to the Antp homeobox family. (389 aa) | ||||
mof | Males-absent on the first protein; Histone acetyltransferase that plays a direct role in the specific histone acetylation associated with dosage compensation as part of the MSL complex. Dosage compensation insures that males with a single X chromosome have the same amount of most X-linked gene products as females with two X chromosomes. May be directly involved in the acetylation of histone 4 at 'Lys-16' on the X chromosome of males where it is recruited by the MSL complex. As part of the NSL complex may associate with promoters of X chromosomal as well as autosomal genes and positivel [...] (827 aa) |
