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) | ||||
C1QTNF4 | Complement C1q tumor necrosis factor-related protein 4; May be involved in the regulation of the inflammatory network. Its role as pro- or anti-inflammatory seems to be context dependent. Seems to have some role in regulating food intake and energy balance when administered in the brain. This effect is sustained over a two-day period, and it is accompanied by decreased expression of orexigenic neuropeptides in the hypothalamus 3 h post-injection (By similarity). (329 aa) |
