gro | Groucho (gro) encodes a global developmental co-repressor in conjunction with manifold DNA-binding repressor partner proteins, which tether it to target promoters. It functions downstream of key signaling pathways such as Wg/Wnt and Dpp/TGF-beta. Notably, phosphorylation of the product of gro in response to MAPK activation weakens its repressor capacity.

cwo | Transcription factor cwo; Plays a role in the regulation of circadian rhythms. Transcriptional repressor which inhibits Clock-mediated transcriptional activation by binding to E boxes in the promoters of Clock target genes and repressing their transcription. E box binding activity is time- dependent with higher binding activity seen in the early morning (zeitgeber time 2) than early evening (zeitgeber time 14) and is dependent on the presence of the circadian protein per. It is likely that per binds to Clock-cycle heterodimers, reducing their affinity for E box binding and allowing cwo [...] (698 aa) |
