PIWIL1 - Piwi-like protein 1; Endoribonuclease that plays a central role in postnatal germ cells by repressing transposable elements and preventing their mobilization, which is essential for the germline integrity. Acts via the piRNA metabolic process, which mediates the repression of transposable elements during meiosis by forming complexes composed of piRNAs and Piwi proteins and governs the methylation and subsequent repression of transposons. Directly binds methylated piRNAs, a class of 24 to 30 nucleotide RNAs that are generated by a Dicer-independent mechanism and are primarily derived fr [...] [a.k.a. XM_011539003.2, 3O6E, 9271]

CGAS - Cyclic GMP-AMP synthase; Nucleotidyltransferase that catalyzes the formation of cyclic GMP-AMP (cGAMP) from ATP and GTP and plays a key role in innate immunity. Catalysis involves both the formation of a 2',5' phosphodiester linkage at the GpA step and the formation of a 3',5' phosphodiester linkage at the ApG step, producing c[G(2',5')pA(3',5')p]. Acts as a key cytosolic DNA sensor, the presence of double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) in the cytoplasm being a danger signal that triggers the immune responses. Binds cytosolic DNA directly, leading to activation and synthesis of cGAMP, a second m [...] [a.k.a. AC019205, 6MJX, AL603910]

TESPA1 - Protein TESPA1; Required for the development and maturation of T-cells, its function being essential for the late stages of thymocyte development (By similarity). Plays a role in T-cell antigen receptor (TCR)-mediated activation of the ERK and NFAT signaling pathways, possibly by serving as a scaffolding protein that promotes the assembly of the LAT signalosome in thymocytes. May play a role in the regulation of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor-mediated Ca(2+) release and mitochondrial Ca(2+) uptake via the mitochondria-associated endoplasmic reticulum membrane (MAM) compartment.

EMB - Embigin; Plays a role in the outgrowth of motoneurons and in the formation of neuromuscular junctions. Following muscle denervation, promotes nerve terminal sprouting and the formation of additional acetylcholine receptor clusters at synaptic sites without affecting terminal Schwann cell number or morphology. Delays the retraction of terminal sprouts following re-innervation of denervated endplates. May play a role in targeting the monocarboxylate transporters SLC16A1 and SLC16A7 to the cell membrane (By similarity). [a.k.a. Embigin, BC059398, EMB-203]

HVCN1 - Voltage-gated hydrogen channel 1; Mediates the voltage-dependent proton permeability of excitable membranes. Forms a proton-selective channel through which protons may pass in accordance with their electrochemical gradient. Proton efflux, accompanied by membrane depolarization, facilitates acute production of reactive oxygen species in phagocytosis. [a.k.a. ENSP00000450106, R-HSA-1474165, R-HSA-1222556]

NRROS - Transforming growth factor beta activator LRRC33; Key regulator of transforming growth factor beta-1 (TGFB1) specifically required for microglia function in the nervous system (By similarity). Required for activation of latent TGF-beta-1 in macrophages and microglia: associates specifically via disulfide bonds with the Latency-associated peptide (LAP), which is the regulatory chain of TGFB1, and regulates integrin-dependent activation of TGF- beta-1 (By similarity). TGF-beta-1 activation mediated by LRRC33/NRROS is highly localized: there is little spreading of TGF-beta-1 activated fro [...] [a.k.a. Q86YC3, LRRC33, UPI000000DA7E]

MCOLN2 - Mucolipin-2; Nonselective cation channel probably playing a role in the regulation of membrane trafficking events. Acts as Ca(2+)-permeable cation channel with inwardly rectifying activity. May activate ARF6 and be involved in the trafficking of GPI-anchored cargo proteins to the cell surface via the ARF6- regulated recycling pathway. May play a role in immune processes. In adaptive immunity, TRPML2 and TRPML1 may play redundant roles in the function of the specialized lysosomes of B cells (By similarity). In the innate immune response, may play a role in the regulation of chemokine se [...] [a.k.a. R-HSA-3295583, 255231, AL358789]

FCMR - Fas apoptotic inhibitory molecule 3; May play a role in the immune system processes. Protects cells from FAS-, TNF alpha- and FADD-induced apoptosis without increasing expression of the inhibitors of apoptosis BCL2 and BCLXL. Seems to activate an inhibitory pathway that prevents CASP8 activation following FAS stimulation, rather than blocking apoptotic signals downstream. May inhibit FAS-induced apoptosis by preventing CASP8 processing through CFLAR up-regulation. [a.k.a. ENSP00000485739, AAC18830.1, TOSO]

CR1 - Complement receptor type 1; Membrane immune adherence receptor that plays a critical role in the capture and clearance of complement-opsonized pathogens by erythrocytes and monocytes/macrophages. Mediates the binding by these cells of particles and immune complexes that have activated complement to eliminate them from the circulation. Acts also in the inhibition of spontaneous complement activation by impairing the formation and function of the alternative and classical pathway C3/C5 convertases, and by serving as a cofactor for the cleavage by factor I of C3b to iC3b, C3c and C3d,g, a [...] [a.k.a. ENST00000534202.5, URS00008BD699, ENST00000436595.1]

WDFY4 - WD repeat- and FYVE domain-containing protein 4; Plays a critical role in the regulation of cDC1-mediated cross-presentation of viral and tumor antigens in dendritic cells. Mechanistically, acts near the plasma membrane and interacts with endosomal membranes to promote endosomal-to-cytosol antigen trafficking. Plays also a role in B-cell survival through regulation of autophagy. [a.k.a. XM_005270004, chromosome 10 open reading frame 64, ENSP00000320563]

AK6 - Adenylate kinase isoenzyme 6; Broad-specificity nucleoside monophosphate (NMP) kinase that catalyzes the reversible transfer of the terminal phosphate group between nucleoside triphosphates and monophosphates. AMP and dAMP are the preferred substrates, but CMP and dCMP are also good substrates. IMP is phosphorylated to a much lesser extent. All nucleoside triphosphates ATP, GTP, UTP, CTP, dATP, dCTP, dGTP, and TTP are accepted as phosphate donors. CTP is the best phosphate donor, followed by UTP, ATP, GTP and dCTP. May have a role in nuclear energy homeostasis. Has also ATPase activity [...] [a.k.a. ENST00000512561, ENSG00000085231, OTTHUMG00000187252]

SIRPG - Signal-regulatory protein gamma; Probable immunoglobulin-like cell surface receptor. On binding with CD47, mediates cell-cell adhesion.
