| | Tert | Telomerase reverse transcriptase; Telomerase is a ribonucleoprotein enzyme essential for the replication of chromosome termini in most eukaryotes. Active in progenitor and cancer cells. Inactive, or very low activity, in normal somatic cells. Catalytic component of the teleromerase holoenzyme complex whose main activity is the elongation of telomeres by acting as a reverse transcriptase that adds simple sequence repeats to chromosome ends by copying a template sequence within the RNA component of the enzyme. Catalyzes the RNA-dependent extension of 3'-chromosomal termini with the 6-nuc [...] (1125 aa) |
| | Hhex | Hematopoietically-expressed homeobox. (246 aa) |
| | Prkd2 | Serine/threonine-protein kinase D2; Serine/threonine-protein kinase that converts transient diacylglycerol (DAG) signals into prolonged physiological effects downstream of PKC, and is involved in the regulation of cell proliferation via MAPK1/3 (ERK1/2) signaling, oxidative stress-induced NF-kappa-B activation, inhibition of HDAC7 transcriptional repression, signaling downstream of T-cell antigen receptor (TCR) and cytokine production, and plays a role in Golgi membrane trafficking, angiogenesis, secretory granule release and cell adhesion. May potentiate mitogenesis induced by the neu [...] (875 aa) |
| | Ninj1 | Ninjurin-1; Homophilic cell adhesion molecule that promotes axonal growth. May play a role in nerve regeneration and in the formation and function of other tissues. Cell adhesion requires divalent cations (By similarity). (152 aa) |
| | Klf4 | Kruppel-like factor 4 (Gut), isoform CRA_a. (482 aa) |
| | Prl7d1 | Prolactin family 7, subfamily d, member 1. (245 aa) |
| | Pik3cb | Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate 3-kinase catalytic subunit beta isoform; Phosphoinositide-3-kinase (PI3K) that phosphorylates PtdIns (Phosphatidylinositol), PtdIns4P (Phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate) and PtdIns(4,5)P2 (Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate) to generate phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PIP3). PIP3 plays a key role by recruiting PH domain-containing proteins to the membrane, including AKT1 and PDPK1, activating signaling cascades involved in cell growth, survival, proliferation, motility and morphology. Involved in the activation of AKT1 upon stimulation [...] (1070 aa) |
| | Slc12a2 | Solute carrier family 12 member 2. (1203 aa) |
| | Gpr4 | G-protein coupled receptor 4; Proton-sensing receptor coupled to several G-proteins, including G(s), G(13) and G(q)/G(11) proteins, leading to cAMP production. (365 aa) |
| | Hyal1 | Hyaluronidase-1; May have a role in promoting tumor progression. May block the TGFB1-enhanced cell growth (By similarity). Overexpression of HYAL1 suppressed the growth rate of colon carcinoma cell tumors in an experimental model. (449 aa) |
| | Epn1 | Epsin-1; Binds to membranes enriched in phosphatidylinositol 4,5- bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P2). Modifies membrane curvature and facilitates the formation of clathrin-coated invaginations. Regulates receptor-mediated endocytosis; Belongs to the epsin family. (576 aa) |
