SIX3 | Homeobox protein SIX3; Transcriptional regulator which can act as both a transcriptional repressor and activator by binding a ATTA homeodomain core recognition sequence on these target genes. During forebrain development represses WNT1 expression allowing zona limitans intrathalamica formation and thereby ensuring proper anterio-posterior patterning of the diencephalon and formation of the rostral diencephalon. Acts as a direct upstream activator of SHH expression in the rostral diencephalon ventral midline and that in turn SHH maintains its expression. In addition, Six3 activity is re [...] (314 aa) | ||||
PAX6 | Paired box protein Pax-6; May be a transcription factor with important functions in eye and nasal development. (500 aa) | ||||
VSX2 | Visual system homeobox 2; Acts as a transcriptional regulator (By similarity). Plays a significant role in the specification and morphogenesis of the sensory retina (By similarity). Mediates differentiation of V2a interneurons by repression of motor neuron gene transcription, via competitively binding to response elements that are activated by the ISL1-LHX3 complex. May also participate in the development of the cells of the inner nuclear layer, particularly bipolar cells (By similarity); Belongs to the paired homeobox family. (377 aa) | ||||
PTPRZ1 | Protein-tyrosine-phosphatase. (2343 aa) | ||||
OPN1MSW | Green-sensitive opsin; Visual pigments are the light-absorbing molecules that mediate vision. They consist of an apoprotein, opsin, covalently linked to cis-retinal. (355 aa) | ||||
SHH | Sonic hedgehog protein N-product; [Sonic hedgehog protein]: The C-terminal part of the sonic hedgehog protein precursor displays an autoproteolysis and a cholesterol transferase activity (By similarity). Both activities result in the cleavage of the full-length protein into two parts (ShhN and ShhC) followed by the covalent attachment of a cholesterol moiety to the C-terminal of the newly generated ShhN (By similarity). Both activities occur in the reticulum endoplasmic (By similarity). Once cleaved, ShhC is degraded in the endoplasmic reticulum (By similarity). (425 aa) | ||||
CCND1 | G1/S-specific cyclin-D1; Essential for the control of the cell cycle at the G1/S (start) transition. Interacts with the CDK4 and CDK6 protein kinases. May play a role in transcriptional regulation (By similarity). (292 aa) | ||||
FGFR4 | Fibroblast growth factor receptor. (803 aa) | ||||
FGF8 | Fibroblast growth factor 8; Plays an important role in the regulation of embryonic development, cell proliferation, cell differentiation and cell migration. Involved in initiation, outgrowth and patterning of the limbs; Belongs to the heparin-binding growth factors family. (214 aa) | ||||
RHO | Rhodopsin; Photoreceptor required for image-forming vision at low light intensity. Required for photoreceptor cell viability after birth (By similarity). Light-induced isomerization of 11-cis to all-trans retinal triggers a conformational change that activates signaling via G- proteins. Subsequent receptor phosphorylation mediates displacement of the bound G-protein alpha subunit by arrestin and terminates signaling (By similarity). (351 aa) | ||||

ISL1 | Insulin gene enhancer protein ISL-1; Acts as a transcriptional regulator. Recognizes and binds to the consensus octamer binding site 5'-ATAATTAA- 3' in promoter of target genes. Plays a fundamental role in the gene regulatory network essential for retinal ganglion cell (RGC) differentiation. Binds to insulin gene enhancer sequences (By similarity). Defines subclasses of motoneurons that segregate into columns in the spinal cord and select distinct axon pathways. Acts in conjunction with LHX1, LHX3 and ISL2. Binds to insulin gene enhancer sequences (By similarity). Essential for heart d [...] (349 aa) | ||||
OTX2 | Homeodomain transcription factor. (289 aa) | ||||

Acts by binding (via its C-terminal domain) to sequences related to the consensus octamer motif 5'- ATGCAAAT-3' in the regulatory regions of its target genes. Regulates the expression of specific genes involved in differentiation and survival within a subset of neuronal lineages. It has been shown that activation of some of these genes requires its N-terminal domain, maybe through a neuronal-specific cofactor; Belongs to the POU transcription factor [...] (389 aa) | ||||
