SMAD2 | Mothers against decapentaplegic homolog 2; Receptor-regulated SMAD (R-SMAD) that is an intracellular signal transducer and transcriptional modulator activated by TGF-beta (transforming growth factor) and activin type 1 receptor kinases. Binds the TRE element in the promoter region of many genes that are regulated by TGF-beta and, on formation of the SMAD2/SMAD4 complex, activates transcription. May act as a tumor suppressor in colorectal carcinoma. Positively regulates PDPK1 kinase activity by stimulating its dissociation from the 14-3-3 protein YWHAQ which acts as a negative regulator.

CCNL1 | Cyclin-L1; Involved in pre-mRNA splicing. Functions in association with cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs). Inhibited by the CDK-specific inhibitor CDKN1A/p21. May play a role in the regulation of RNA polymerase II (pol II). May be a candidate proto- oncogene in head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCC). (526 aa) |
