Trl | Transcription factor GAGA; Transcriptional activator that functions by regulating chromatin structure. Overcomes the repressive effects of chromatin by promoting the open chromatin conformation in promoter gene regions, thereby allowing access to other transcription factors. Binds to DNA Polycomb response elements (PREs) at the bithorax complex and to the proximal region of the engrailed promoter, and positively regulates transcription of many genes including homeotic ones. Binds to the DNA sequence (GA)n, with optimal binding to the pentamer 5'-GAGAG-3'. Binds DNA as an oligomer. May [...] (623 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.
