MYOD1 | Myoblast determination protein 1; Acts as a transcriptional activator that promotes transcription of muscle-specific target genes and plays a role in muscle differentiation. Together with MYF5 and MYOG, co-occupies muscle-specific gene promoter core region during myogenesis. Induces fibroblasts to differentiate into myoblasts. Interacts with and is inhibited by the twist protein. This interaction probably involves the basic domains of both proteins (By similarity). (320 aa) | ||||
SBF2 | Myotubularin-related protein 13; Guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) which activates RAB21 and possibly RAB28. Promotes the exchange of GDP to GTP, converting inactive GDP-bound Rab proteins into their active GTP-bound form. In response to starvation-induced autophagy, activates RAB21 which in turn binds to and regulates SNARE protein VAMP8 endolysosomal transport required for SNARE-mediated autophagosome-lysosome fusion. Acts as an adapter for the phosphatase MTMR2 (By similarity). Increases MTMR2 catalytic activity towards phosphatidylinositol 3,5-bisphosphate and to a lesser ex [...] (1849 aa) |
