AGO2 | Protein argonaute-2; Required for RNA-mediated gene silencing (RNAi) by the RNA- induced silencing complex (RISC). The 'minimal RISC' appears to include AGO2 bound to a short guide RNA such as a microRNA (miRNA) or short interfering RNA (siRNA). These guide RNAs direct RISC to complementary mRNAs that are targets for RISC-mediated gene silencing. The precise mechanism of gene silencing depends on the degree of complementarity between the miRNA or siRNA and its target. Binding of RISC to a perfectly complementary mRNA generally results in silencing due to endonucleolytic cleavage of the [...] (859 aa) | ||||
SLC35D1 | UDP-glucuronic acid/UDP-N-acetylgalactosamine transporter; Transports both UDP-glucuronic acid (UDP-GlcA) and UDP-N- acetylgalactosamine (UDP-GalNAc) from the cytoplasm into the endoplasmic reticulum lumen. Plays a role in chondroitin sulfate biosynthesis, which is important for formation of cartilage extracellular matrix and normal skeletal development (By similarity). (355 aa) |
