ZBTB7A | Zinc finger and BTB domain-containing protein 7A; Transcription factor that represses the transcription of a wide range of genes involved in cell proliferation and differentiation. Directly and specifically binds to the consensus sequence 5'-[GA][CA]GACCCCCCCCC-3' and represses transcription both by regulating the organization of chromatin and through the direct recruitment of transcription factors to gene regulatory regions. Negatively regulates SMAD4 transcriptional activity in the TGF-beta signaling pathway through these two mechanisms. That is, recruits the chromatin regulator HDAC [...] (584 aa) | ||||
CBX1 | Chromobox protein homolog 1; Component of heterochromatin. Recognizes and binds histone H3 tails methylated at 'Lys-9', leading to epigenetic repression. Interaction with lamin B receptor (LBR) can contribute to the association of the heterochromatin with the inner nuclear membrane. (185 aa) |
