KLF4 | Krueppel-like factor 4; Transcription factor; can act both as activator and as repressor. Binds the 5'-CACCC-3' core sequence. Binds to the promoter region of its own gene and can activate its own transcription. Regulates the expression of key transcription factors during embryonic development. Plays an important role in maintaining embryonic stem cells, and in preventing their differentiation. Required for establishing the barrier function of the skin and for postnatal maturation and maintenance of the ocular surface. Involved in the differentiation of epithelial cells and may also fu [...] (479 aa) | ||||
HMX1 | Homeobox protein HMX1; DNA-binding protein that binds to the 5'-CAAG-3' core sequence. May function as a transcriptional repressor. Seems to act as a transcriptional antagonist of NKX2-5. May play an important role in the development of craniofacial structures such as the eye and ear. (348 aa) |
