SMAD4 | Mothers against decapentaplegic homolog 4; In muscle physiology, plays a central role in the balance between atrophy and hypertrophy. When recruited by MSTN, promotes atrophy response via phosphorylated SMAD2/4. MSTN decrease causes SMAD4 release and subsequent recruitment by the BMP pathway to promote hypertrophy via phosphorylated SMAD1/5/8. Acts synergistically with SMAD1 and YY1 in bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)-mediated cardiac- specific gene expression. Binds to SMAD binding elements (SBEs) (5'- GTCT/AGAC-3') within BMP response element (BMPRE) of cardiac activating regions (By [...] (552 aa) | ||||
IER5 | Immediate early response gene 5 protein; Plays a role as a transcription factor. Mediates positive transcriptional regulation of several chaperone genes during the heat shock response in a HSF1- dependent manner. Mediates negative transcriptional regulation of CDC25B expression. Plays a role in the dephosphorylation of the heat shock factor HSF1 and ribosomal protein S6 kinase (S6K) by the protein phosphatase PP2A. Involved in the regulation of cell proliferation and resistance to thermal stress. Involved in the cell cycle checkpoint and survival in response to ionizing radiation. Asso [...] (327 aa) |
