|---|---|---|
| Calcium homeostasis modulator protein 6 | Q8C9E8 | [Function: Pore-forming subunit of a voltage-gated ion channel.] |
| Dual specificity protein phosphatase CDC14A | Q6GQT0 | [Function: Dual-specificity phosphatase. Required for centrosome separation and productive cytokinesis during cell division. Dephosphorylates SIRT2 around early anaphase. May dephosphorylate the APC subunit FZR1/CDH1, thereby promoting APC-FZR1 dependent degradation of mitotic cyclins and subsequent exit from mitosis (By similarity). Required for normal hearing (PubMed:29293958).] |
| Alpha-2-macroglobulin-P | Q6GQT1 | [Function: Is able to inhibit all four classes of proteinases by a unique 'trapping' mechanism. This protein has a peptide stretch, called the 'bait region' which contains specific cleavage sites for different proteinases. When a proteinase cleaves the bait region, a conformational change is induced in the protein which traps the proteinase. The entrapped enzyme remains active against low molecular weight substrates (activity against high molecular weight substrates is greatly reduced). Following cleavage in the bait region a thioester bond is hydrolyzed and mediates the covalent binding of the protein to the proteinase (By similarity).] |
| Follistatin-related protein 1 | Q62356 | [Function: May modulate the action of some growth factors on cell proliferation and differentiation. Binds heparin (By similarity).] |
| Killer cell lectin-like receptor subfamily B member 1B allele C | Q5NKN2 | [Function: Receptor for CLEC2D/OCIL. Ligand-binding contributes to inhibition of cytotoxic natural killer (NK) cells. May mediate MHC class I-independent 'missing-self' recognition of allografts, tumor cells and virus-infected cells.] |
| Pleckstrin homology-like domain family A member 3 | Q5PQT7 | [Function: p53/TP53-regulated repressor of Akt/AKT1 signaling. Represses AKT1 by preventing AKT1-binding to membrane lipids, thereby inhibiting AKT1 translocation to the cellular membrane and activation. Contributes to p53/TP53-dependent apoptosis by repressing AKT1 activity. Its direct transcription regulation by p53/TP53 may explain how p53/TP53 can negatively regulate AKT1. May act as a tumor suppressor (By similarity).] |
| Zinc finger protein SNAI1 | O95863 | [Function: Involved in induction of the epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT), formation and maintenance of embryonic mesoderm, growth arrest, survival and cell migration. Binds to 3 E-boxes of the E-cadherin/CDH1 gene promoter and to the promoters of CLDN7 and KRT8 and, in association with histone demethylase KDM1A which it recruits to the promoters, causes a decrease in dimethylated H3K4 levels and represses transcription (PubMed:20389281, PubMed:20562920). The N-terminal SNAG domain competes with histone H3 for the same binding site on the histone demethylase complex formed by KDM1A and RCOR1, and thereby inhibits demethylation of histone H3 at 'Lys-4' (in vitro) (PubMed:20389281, PubMed:21300290, PubMed:23721412). During EMT, involved with LOXL2 in negatively regulating pericentromeric heterochromatin transcription (By similarity). SNAI1 recruits LOXL2 to pericentromeric regions to oxidize histone H3 and repress transcription which leads to release of heterochromatin component CBX5/HP1A, enabling chromatin reorganization and acquisition of mesenchymal traits (By similarity). Associates with EGR1 and SP1 to mediate tetradecanoyl phorbol acetate (TPA)-induced up-regulation of CDKN2B, possibly by binding to the CDKN2B promoter region 5'-TCACA-3. In addition, may also activate the CDKN2B promoter by itself.] |
| 3'(2'),5'-bisphosphate nucleotidase 1 | O95861 | [Function: Converts adenosine 3'-phosphate 5'-phosphosulfate (PAPS) to adenosine 5'-phosphosulfate (APS) and 3'(2')-phosphoadenosine 5'- phosphate (PAP) to AMP. Has 1000-fold lower activity towards inositol 1,4-bisphosphate (Ins(1,4)P2) and inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate (Ins(1,3,4)P3), but does not hydrolyze Ins(1)P, Ins(3,4)P2, Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 or InsP6.] |
| Megakaryocyte and platelet inhibitory receptor G6b | O95866 | [Function: Isoform B, displayed in this entry, is the only isoform to contain both a transmembrane region and 2 immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitor motifs (ITIMs) and, thus, the only one which probably has a role of inhibitory receptor. Isoform A may be the activating counterpart of isoform B.] |
| Ubiquinone biosynthesis monooxygenase COQ6, mitochondrial | Q9Y2Z9 | [Function: FAD-dependent monooxygenase required for the C5-ring hydroxylation during ubiquinone biosynthesis. Catalyzes the hydroxylation of 3-hexaprenyl-4-hydroxybenzoic acid (HHB) to 3-hexaprenyl-4,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid (DHHB). The electrons required for the hydroxylation reaction may be funneled indirectly from NADPH via a ferredoxin/ferredoxin reductase system to COQ6 (By similarity). Is able to perform the deamination reaction at C4 of 3-hexaprenyl-4-amino-5-hydroxybenzoic acid (HHAB) to produce DHHB when expressed in yeast cells lacking COQ9, even if utilization of para-aminobenzoic acid (pABA) involving C4-deamination seems not to occur in bacteria, plants and mammals, where only C5 hydroxylation of HHB has been shown (PubMed:26260787).] |
| Lymphocyte antigen 6 complex locus protein G6c | O95867 | |
| MORN repeat-containing protein 2 | Q502X0 | [Function: Might have a role in spermatogenesis.] |
| Acyl-CoA 6-desaturase | O95864 | [Function: Acts as a fatty acyl-coenzyme A (CoA) desaturase that introduces a cis double bond at carbon 6 of the fatty acyl chain. Involved in biosynthesis of highly unsaturated fatty acids (HUFA) from the essential polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) linoleic acid (LA) (18:2n-6) and alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) (18:3n-3) precursors. Catalyzes the first and rate limiting step in this pathway which is the desaturation of LA (18:2n-6) and ALA (18:3n-3) into gamma-linoleate (GLA) (18:3n-6) and stearidonate (18:4n-3), respectively (PubMed:12713571). Subsequently, in the biosynthetic pathway of HUFA n-3 series, desaturates tetracosapentaenoate (24:5n-3) to tetracosahexaenoate (24:6n-3), which is then converted to docosahexaenoate (DHA)(22:6n-3), an important lipid for nervous system function (By similarity). Desaturates palmitate to produce the mono-unsaturated fatty acid sapienate, the most abundant fatty acid in sebum (PubMed:12713571). Also desaturates (11E)-octadecenoate (trans-vaccenoate)(18:1n-9), a metabolite in the biohydrogenation pathway of LA (18:2n-6) (By similarity).] |
| N(G),N(G)-dimethylarginine dimethylaminohydrolase 2 | O95865 | [Function: Hydrolyzes N(G),N(G)-dimethyl-L-arginine (ADMA) and N(G)-monomethyl-L-arginine (MMA) which act as inhibitors of NOS. Has therefore a role in the regulation of nitric oxide generation.] |
| Transferrin receptor protein 1 | Q62351 | [Function: Cellular uptake of iron occurs via receptor-mediated endocytosis of ligand-occupied transferrin receptor into specialized endosomes. Endosomal acidification leads to iron release. The apotransferrin-receptor complex is then recycled to the cell surface with a return to neutral pH and the concomitant loss of affinity of apotransferrin for its receptor. Transferrin receptor is necessary for development of erythrocytes and the nervous system (By similarity). Upon stimulation, positively regulates T and B cell proliferation through iron uptake (PubMed:26642240).] |
| N-acetylaspartate synthetase | Q8N9F0 | [Function: Plays a role in the regulation of lipogenesis by producing N-acetylaspartate acid (NAA), a brain-specific metabolite. NAA occurs in high concentration in brain and its hydrolysis plays a significant part in the maintenance of intact white matter. Promotes dopamine uptake by regulating TNF-alpha expression. Attenuates methamphetamine-induced inhibition of dopamine uptake.] |
| Myotubularin-related protein 3 | Q5PQT2 | [Function: Phosphatase that acts on lipids with a phosphoinositol headgroup. Has phosphatase activity towards phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate and phosphatidylinositol 3,5-bisphosphate. May also dephosphorylate proteins phosphorylated on Ser, Thr, and Tyr residues (By similarity).] |
| Glycine N-acyltransferase | Q5PQT3 | [Function: Mitochondrial acyltransferase which transfers an acyl group to the N-terminus of glycine and glutamine, although much less efficiently. Can conjugate a multitude of substrates to form a variety of N-acylglycines, thereby detoxify xenobiotics, such as benzoic acid or salicylic acid, and endogenous organic acids, such as isovaleric acid.] |
| Killer cell lectin-like receptor subfamily B member 1B allele B | Q5NKN4 | [Function: Receptor for CLEC2D/OCIL. Ligand-binding contributes to inhibition of cytotoxic natural killer (NK) cells. May mediate MHC class I-independent 'missing-self' recognition of allografts, tumor cells and virus-infected cells.] |
| AT-rich interactive domain-containing protein 4B | A2CG63 | [Function: Acts as a transcriptional repressor. May function in the assembly and/or enzymatic activity of the Sin3A corepressor complex or in mediating interactions between the complex and other regulatory complexes (By similarity). Plays a role in the regulation of epigenetic modifications at the PWS/AS imprinting center near the SNRPN promoter, where it might function as part of a complex with RB1 and ARID4A (PubMed:17043311). Involved in spermatogenesis, together with ARID4A, where it functions as a transcriptional coactivator for AR (androgen receptor) and enhances expression of genes required for sperm maturation. Regulates expression of the tight junction protein CLDN3 in the testis, which is important for integrity of the blood-testis barrier (PubMed:23487765). Plays a role in myeloid homeostasis where it regulates the histone methylation state of bone marrow cells and expression of various genes involved in hematopoiesis. May function as a leukemia suppressor (PubMed:18728284).] |
