HOXC13 | Homeobox protein Hox-C13; Transcription factor which plays a role in hair follicle differentiation. Regulates FOXQ1 expression and that of other hair- specific genes (By similarity); Belongs to the Abd-B homeobox family. (330 aa) | ||||
MECP2 | Methyl-CpG-binding protein 2; Chromosomal protein that binds to methylated DNA. It can bind specifically to a single methyl-CpG pair. It is not influenced by sequences flanking the methyl-CpGs. Mediates transcriptional repression through interaction with histone deacetylase and the corepressor SIN3A. Binds both 5-methylcytosine (5mC) and 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC)- containing DNA, with a preference for 5-methylcytosine (5mC). (498 aa) |
