PHOX2B | Paired mesoderm homeobox protein 2B; Involved in the development of several major noradrenergic neuron populations, including the locus coeruleus. Transcription factor which could determine a neurotransmitter phenotype in vertebrates. Enhances second-messenger-mediated activation of the dopamine beta- hydrolase and c-fos promoters, and of several enhancers including cAMP- response element and serum-response element; Belongs to the paired homeobox family. (314 aa) | ||||
NPAS1 | Neuronal PAS domain-containing protein 1; May control regulatory pathways relevant to schizophrenia and to psychotic illness. May play a role in late central nervous system development by modulating EPO expression in response to cellular oxygen level (By similarity). Forms a heterodimer that binds core DNA sequence 5'-TACGTG-3' within the hypoxia response element (HRE) leading to transcriptional repression on its target gene TH (By similarity). (590 aa) |
