Label	Id	Description
Aspartate beta-hydroxylase domain-containing protein 2	Q80VP9	[Function: May function as 2-oxoglutarate-dependent dioxygenase.]
Spermatogenesis-associated protein 7 homolog	Q80VP2	[Function: Involved in the maintenance of both rod and cone photoreceptor cells (PubMed:25398945, PubMed:29100828, PubMed:29899041). Required for photoreceptor-specific localization of proximal connecting cilium (CC) proteins RPGR, AHI1, NPHP1, NPHP4, and RPGRIP1 at the distal CC, a photoreceptor-specific extension of the primary cilium transition zone (PubMed:25398945, PubMed:29100828, PubMed:29899041). Maintenance of protein localization at the photoreceptor-specific distal CC is essential for normal microtubule stability and to prevent photoreceptor degeneration (PubMed:25398945, PubMed:29899041).]
Pre-mRNA-processing factor 40 homolog B	Q80W14	[Function: May be involved in pre-mRNA splicing.]
Probable peptide chain release factor C12orf65 homolog, mitochondrial	Q80VP5	[Function: May act as a codon-independent translation release factor that has lost all stop codon specificity and directs the termination of translation in mitochondrion. May help rescuing stalled mitoribosomes during translation (By similarity).]
Insulin-like growth factor-binding protein-like 1	Q80W15	[Function: IGF-binding proteins prolong the half-life of IGFs and have been shown to either inhibit or stimulate the growth promoting effects of the IGFs in cell culture. They alter the interaction of IGFs with their cell surface receptors (By similarity).]
Transmembrane protein 45B	Q8VCZ2
Ectonucleotide pyrophosphatase/phosphodiesterase family member 2	Q9R1E6	[Function: Hydrolyzes lysophospholipids to produce the signaling molecule lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) in extracellular fluids (PubMed:17208043, PubMed:28414242, PubMed:27780639). Major substrate is lysophosphatidylcholine (PubMed:17208043, PubMed:27780639). Also can act on sphingosylphosphorylcholine producing sphingosine-1-phosphate, a modulator of cell motility. Can hydrolyze, in vitro, bis-pNPP, to some extent pNP-TMP, and barely ATP (PubMed:18175805). Involved in several motility-related processes such as angiogenesis and neurite outgrowth. Acts as an angiogenic factor by stimulating migration of smooth muscle cells and microtubule formation. Stimulates migration of melanoma cells, probably via a pertussis toxin-sensitive G protein. May have a role in induction of parturition (By similarity). Possible involvement in cell proliferation and adipose tissue development (Probable). Tumor cell motility-stimulating factor.]
Cysteinyl leukotriene receptor 1	Q99JA4	[Function: Receptor for cysteinyl leukotrienes mediating constriction of the microvascular smooth muscle during an inflammatory response. This response is mediated via a G-protein that activates a phosphatidylinositol-calcium second messenger system. The rank order of affinities for the leukotrienes is LTD4 >> LTE4 = LTC4 >> LTB4.]
THAP domain-containing protein 7	Q8VCZ3	[Function: Chromatin-associated, histone tail-binding protein that represses transcription via recruitment of HDAC3 and nuclear hormone receptor corepressors.]
Agouti-signaling protein	Q99JA2	[Function: Involved in the regulation of melanogenesis. The binding of ASP to MC1R precludes alpha-MSH initiated signaling and thus blocks production of cAMP, leading to a down-regulation of eumelanogenesis (brown/black pigment) and thus increasing synthesis of pheomelanin (yellow/red pigment).]
CCN family member 2	Q9R1E9	[Function: Major connective tissue mitoattractant secreted by vascular endothelial cells. Promotes proliferation and differentiation of chondrocytes (By similarity). Mediates heparin- and divalent cation-dependent cell adhesion in many cell types including fibroblasts, myofibroblasts, endothelial and epithelial cells (By similarity). Enhances fibroblast growth factor-induced DNA synthesis (By similarity).]
Calcitonin gene-related peptide 1	Q99JA0	[Function: CGRP induces vasodilation. It dilates a variety of vessels including the coronary, cerebral and systemic vasculature. Its abundance in the CNS also points toward a neurotransmitter or neuromodulator role. It also elevates platelet cAMP (By similarity).]
Neurogenic locus notch homolog protein 3	Q9R172	[Function: Functions as a receptor for membrane-bound ligands Jagged1, Jagged2 and Delta1 to regulate cell-fate determination. Upon ligand activation through the released notch intracellular domain (NICD) it forms a transcriptional activator complex with RBPJ/RBPSUH and activates genes of the enhancer of split locus. Affects the implementation of differentiation, proliferation and apoptotic programs (By similarity). Acts instructively to control the cell fate determination of CNS multipotent progenitor cells, resulting in astroglial induction and neuron/oligodendrocyte suppression.]
Tumor necrosis factor alpha-induced protein 8-like protein 3	Q5GJ75	[Function: Acts as a lipid transfer protein. Preferentially captures and shuttles two lipid second messengers, i.e., phosphatidylinositol 4,5- bisphosphate and phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate and increases their levels in the plasma membrane. Additionally, may also function as a lipid-presenting protein to enhance the activity of the PI3K-AKT and MEK-ERK pathways. May act as a regulator of tumorigenesis through its activation of phospholipid signaling.]
Protein asteroid homolog 1	Q8BIR2	[Function: Possible role in EGF receptor signaling.]
Cerebellin-1	Q9R171	[Function: The cerebellin peptide exerts neuromodulatory functions. Directly stimulates norepinephrine release via the adenylate cyclase/PKA-dependent signaling pathway; and indirectly enhances adrenocortical secretion in vivo, through a paracrine mechanism involving medullary catecholamine release (By similarity).]
NADH dehydrogenase [ubiquinone] iron-sulfur protein 3, mitochondrial	O75489	[Function: Core subunit of the mitochondrial membrane respiratory chain NADH dehydrogenase (Complex I) that is believed to belong to the minimal assembly required for catalysis. Complex I functions in the transfer of electrons from NADH to the respiratory chain. The immediate electron acceptor for the enzyme is believed to be ubiquinone (By similarity).]
Transcription initiation protein SPT3 homolog	O75486	[Function: Probable transcriptional activator.]
Tubulin gamma-2 chain	Q8VCK3	[Function: Tubulin is the major constituent of microtubules. The gamma chain is found at microtubule organizing centers (MTOC) such as the spindle poles or the centrosome. Pericentriolar matrix component that regulates alpha/beta chain minus-end nucleation, centrosome duplication and spindle formation (By similarity).]
Glypican-4	O75487	[Function: Cell surface proteoglycan that bears heparan sulfate. May be involved in the development of kidney tubules and of the central nervous system (By similarity).]
