Mi-2 | Chromodomain-helicase-DNA-binding protein Mi-2 homolog; Mi-2 (Mi-2) encodes a nuclear ATP-dependent nucleosome remodeler of the CHD family. It associates with active chromatin and utilizes the energy of ATP hydrolysis to move nucleosomes along DNA. It is required for repression of cell type-specific genes, full activation of heat shock genes and regulates higher order chromatin structure of polytene chromosomes. (1983 aa) | ||||
dpn | Protein deadpan; Transcriptional repressor of genes that require a bHLH protein for their transcription. In the larval brain, required to maintain the self- renewal and identity of type II neuroblasts by regulating the expression of the transcriptional repressor erm together with other self-renewal transcriptional repressors such as klu and E(spl)mgamma- HLH. As part of its role in neuroblasts development, has been shown to be a direct target of the Notch signaling pathway, however might work also independently of N/Notch. In the developing larval and pupal brain, required for mushroom [...] (435 aa) |
