Plays an important role in the regulation of cell survival, cell division, cell differentiation and cell migration. Functions as a potent mitogen in vitro. Can induce angiogenesis. (154 aa)
Map1bMicrotubule-associated protein 1B; Phosphorylated MAP1B may play a role in the cytoskeletal changes that accompany neurite extension. Possibly MAP1B binds to at least two tubulin subunits in the polymer, and this bridging of subunits might be involved in nucleating microtubule polymerization and in stabilizing microtubules. Acts as a positive cofactor in DAPK1- mediated autophagic vesicle formation and membrane blebbing. Facilitates tyrosination of alpha-tubulin in neuronal microtubules. Required for synaptic maturation (By similarity). Interacts with TMEM185A (By similarity). (2461 aa)
Bnip3BCL2/adenovirus E1B 19 kDa-interacting protein 3. (187 aa)
MtrMethionine synthase; Catalyzes the transfer of a methyl group from methyl- cobalamin to homocysteine, yielding enzyme-bound cob(I)alamin and methionine. Subsequently, remethylates the cofactor using methyltetrahydrofolate (By similarity). (1253 aa)
Sod2Superoxide dismutase [Mn], mitochondrial; Destroys superoxide anion radicals which are normally produced within the cells and which are toxic to biological systems. Belongs to the iron/manganese superoxide dismutase family. (222 aa)
