HDAC8 | Histone deacetylase 8; Responsible for the deacetylation of lysine residues on the N-terminal part of the core histones (H2A, H2B, H3 and H4). Histone deacetylation gives a tag for epigenetic repression and plays an important role in transcriptional regulation, cell cycle progression and developmental events. Histone deacetylases act via the formation of large multiprotein complexes. Also involved in the deacetylation of cohesin complex protein SMC3 regulating release of cohesin complexes from chromatin. May play a role in smooth muscle cell contractility. (377 aa) | ||||
PAQR7 | Membrane progestin receptor alpha; Plasma membrane progesterone (P4) receptor coupled to G proteins. Seems to act through a G(i) mediated pathway. May be involved in oocyte maturation. Involved in neurosteroid inhibition of apoptosis. Also binds dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), pregnanolone, pregnenolone and allopregnanolone. Belongs to the ADIPOR family. (346 aa) |
