GRHL1 | Grainyhead-like protein 1 homolog; Transcription factor involved in epithelial development. Binds directly to the consensus DNA sequence 5'-AACCGGTT-3'. Important regulator of DSG1 in the context of hair anchorage and epidermal differentiation, participates in the maintenance of the skin barrier. There is no genetic interaction with GRHL3, no functional cooperativity due to diverse target gene selectivity during epithelia development (By similarity). [Isoform 2]: May function as a repressor in tissues where both isoform 1 and isoform 2 are expressed. (618 aa) | ||||
SMCHD1 | Structural maintenance of chromosomes flexible hinge domain-containing protein 1; Non-canonical member of the structural maintenance of chromosomes (SMC) protein family that plays a key role in epigenetic silencing by regulating chromatin architecture (By similarity). Promotes heterochromatin formation in both autosomes and chromosome X, probably by mediating the merge of chromatin compartments (By similarity). Plays a key role in chromosome X inactivation in females by promoting the spreading of heterochromatin. Recruited to inactivated chromosome X by Xist RNA and acts by mediating t [...] (2005 aa) |
