Required for protein stability of E3 ubiquitin ligases CBL and CBLB that mediate ubiquitination and internalization of PDGFRA for proper feedback inhibition of PDGFRA signaling. Essential for male fertility. Plays an important role in spermatogenesis, particular [...] (132 aa) |
| | Hipk2 | Homeodomain-interacting protein kinase 2; Serine/threonine-protein kinase involved in transcription regulation, p53/TP53-mediated cellular apoptosis and regulation of the cell cycle. Acts as a corepressor of several transcription factors, including SMAD1 and POU4F1/Brn3a and probably NK homeodomain transcription factors. Phosphorylates PDX1, ATF1, PML, p53/TP53, CREB1, CTBP1, CBX4, RUNX1, EP300, CTNNB1, HMGA1 and ZBTB4. Inhibits cell growth and promotes apoptosis through the activation of p53/TP53 both at the transcription level and at the protein level (by phosphorylation and indirect [...] (1196 aa) |
| | Fbxo41 | F-box only protein 41; Substrate-recognition component of the SCF (SKP1-CUL1-F-box protein)-type E3 ubiquitin ligase complex. (873 aa) |
| | Cyp11b1 | Cytochrome P450, family 11, subfamily b, polypeptide 1; Belongs to the cytochrome P450 family. (501 aa) |
| | Klf3 | Krueppel-like factor 3; Binds to the CACCC box of erythroid cell-expressed genes. May play a role in hematopoiesis; Belongs to the krueppel C2H2-type zinc-finger protein family. (344 aa) |
| | Grm6 | Metabotropic glutamate receptor 6; G-protein coupled receptor for glutamate. Ligand binding causes a conformation change that triggers signaling via guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins) and modulates the activity of down-stream effectors, such as adenylate cyclase. Signaling inhibits adenylate cyclase activity (By similarity). Signaling stimulates TRPM1 channel activity and Ca(2+) uptake. Required for normal vision. (871 aa) |
| | Gm38394 | Zinc finger BED domain-containing protein 6; Transcriptional repressor which binds to the consensus sequence 5'-GCTCGC-3' and represses transcription of IGF2. May also regulate expression of other target genes containing the binding site. (980 aa) |
| | Ddc | Aromatic-L-amino-acid decarboxylase; Catalyzes the decarboxylation of L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA) to dopamine, L-5-hydroxytryptophan to serotonin and L-tryptophan to tryptamine; Belongs to the group II decarboxylase family. (480 aa) |
| | Cys1 | Cystin-1. (145 aa) |
| | Wdhd1 | WD repeat and HMG-box DNA-binding protein 1; Acts as a replication initiation factor that brings together the MCM2-7 helicase and the DNA polymerase alpha/primase complex in order to initiate DNA replication. (1118 aa) |
| | Mpv17 | Protein Mpv17; Non-selective channel that modulates the membrane potential under normal conditions and oxidative stress, and is involved in mitochondrial homeostasis (By similarity). Involved in mitochondrial deoxynucleoside triphosphates (dNTP) pool homeostasis and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) maintenance. May be involved in the regulation of reactive oxygen species metabolism and the control of oxidative phosphorylation (Probable); Belongs to the peroxisomal membrane protein PXMP2/4 family. (178 aa) |
| | Marveld2 | MARVEL domain-containing protein 2; Plays a role in the formation of tricellular tight junctions and of epithelial barriers. Required for normal hearing via its role in the separation of the endolymphatic and perilymphatic spaces of the organ of Corti in the inner ear, and for normal survival of hair cells in the organ of Corti. (555 aa) |
| | Cdkn1a | Cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 1; May be involved in p53/TP53 mediated inhibition of cellular proliferation in response to DNA damage. Binds to and inhibits cyclin- dependent kinase activity, preventing phosphorylation of critical cyclin-dependent kinase substrates and blocking cell cycle progression. Functions in the nuclear localization and assembly of cyclin D-CDK4 complex and promotes its kinase activity towards RB1. At higher stoichiometric ratios, inhibits the kinase activity of the cyclin D- CDK4 complex. Inhibits DNA synthesis by DNA polymerase delta by competing with POLD3 [...] (159 aa) |
