Protein FAM114A2	Q8VE88
Testis-expressed protein 44	Q53QW1
Ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2 W	Q8VDW4	[Function: Accepts ubiquitin from the E1 complex and catalyzes its covalent attachment to other proteins. Specifically monoubiquitinates the N-terminus of various substrates, including ATXN3, MAPT/TAU, POLR2H/RPB8 and STUB1/CHIP, by recognizing backbone atoms of disordered N-termini (PubMed:21855799, PubMed:21229326). Involved in degradation of misfolded chaperone substrates by mediating monoubiquitination of STUB1/CHIP, leading to recruitment of ATXN3 to monoubiquitinated STUB1/CHIP, and restriction of the length of ubiquitin chain attached to STUB1/CHIP substrates by ATXN3 (PubMed:21855799). After UV irradiation, but not after mitomycin-C (MMC) treatment, acts as a specific E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme for the Fanconi anemia complex by associating with E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase FANCL and catalyzing monoubiquitination of FANCD2, a key step in the DNA damage pathway (PubMed:21229326). In vitro catalyzes 'Lys-11'-linked polyubiquitination. UBE2W-catalyzed ubiquitination occurs also in the presence of inactive RING/U-box type E3s, i.e. lacking the active site cysteine residues to form thioester bonds with ubiquitin, or even in the absence of E3, albeit at a slower rate (By similarity).]

Androglobin	G3UZ78
mRNA cap guanine-N7 methyltransferase	Q5U2U7	[Function: Catalytic subunit of the mRNA-capping methyltransferase RNMT:RAMAC complex that methylates the N7 position of the added guanosine to the 5'-cap structure of mRNAs. Binds RNA containing 5'-terminal GpppC.]
Multifunctional procollagen lysine hydroxylase and glycosyltransferase LH3	Q5U367	[Function: Multifunctional enzyme that catalyzes a series of post-translational modifications on Lys residues in procollagen. Plays a redundant role in catalyzing the formation of hydroxylysine residues in -Xaa-Lys-Gly- sequences in collagens (By similarity). Plays a redundant role in catalyzing the transfer of galactose onto hydroxylysine groups, giving rise to galactosyl 5-hydroxylysine (By similarity). Has an essential role by catalyzing the subsequent transfer of glucose moieties, giving rise to 1,2-glucosylgalactosyl-5-hydroxylysine residues. Catalyzes hydroxylation and glycosylation of Lys residues in the MBL1 collagen-like domain, giving rise to hydroxylysine and 1,2-glucosylgalactosyl-5-hydroxylysine residues. Catalyzes hydroxylation and glycosylation of Lys residues in the ADIPOQ collagen-like domain, giving rise to hydroxylysine and 1,2-glucosylgalactosyl-5-hydroxylysine residues. Essential for normal biosynthesis and secretion of type IV collagens. Essential for normal formation of basement membranes (By similarity).]
Complexin-4	Q80WM3	[Function: Complexin that regulates SNARE protein complex-mediated synaptic vesicle fusion (PubMed:19386896). Required for the maintenance of synaptic ultrastructure in the adult retina (PubMed:19386896). Positively regulates synaptic transmission through synaptic vesicle availability and exocytosis of neurotransmitters at photoreceptor ribbon synapses in the retina (PubMed:15911881, PubMed:19386896, PubMed:27335398). Suppresses tonic photoreceptor activity and baseline 'noise' by suppression of Ca(2+) vesicle tonic release and the facilitation of evoked synchronous and asynchronous Ca(2+) vesicle release (PubMed:22694764, PubMed:27335398).]
Hyaluronan and proteoglycan link protein 4	Q80WM4	[Function: Binds to hyaluronic acid and may be involved in formation of the extracellular matrix.]

Ras-specific guanine nucleotide-releasing factor 2	O14827	[Function: Functions as a calcium-regulated nucleotide exchange factor activating both Ras and RAC1 through the exchange of bound GDP for GTP. Preferentially activates HRAS in vivo compared to RRAS based on their different types of prenylation. Functions in synaptic plasticity by contributing to the induction of long term potentiation.]
Serine/threonine-protein phosphatase with EF-hands 1	O14829	[Function: May have a role in the recovery or adaptation response of photoreceptors. May have a role in development.]
ATP-dependent RNA helicase DDX39A	Q8VDW0	[Function: Involved in pre-mRNA splicing. Required for the export of mRNA out of the nucleus (By similarity).]
THO complex subunit 3	Q8VE80	[Function: Required for efficient export of polyadenylated RNA and spliced mRNA. Acts as component of the THO subcomplex of the TREX complex which is thought to couple mRNA transcription, processing and nuclear export, and which specifically associates with spliced mRNA and not with unspliced pre-mRNA. TREX is recruited to spliced mRNAs by a transcription-independent mechanism, binds to mRNA upstream of the exon-junction complex (EJC) and is recruited in a splicing- and cap-dependent manner to a region near the 5' end of the mRNA where it functions in mRNA export to the cytoplasm via the TAP/NFX1 pathway (By similarity).]
NACHT, LRR and PYD domains-containing protein 1b allele 1	Q2LKW6	[Function: As the sensor component of the NLRP1 inflammasome, plays a crucial role in innate immunity and inflammation. In response to pathogens and other damage-associated signals, initiates the formation of the inflammasome polymeric complex, made of Nlrp1b, CASP1, and possibly PYCARD. Recruitment of proCASP1 to the inflammasome promotes its activation and CASP1-catalyzed IL1B and IL18 maturation and secretion in the extracellular milieu. Activation of NLRP1 inflammasome is also required for HMGB1 secretion. The active cytokines and HMGB1 stimulate inflammatory responses. Inflammasomes can also induce pyroptosis, an inflammatory form of programmed cell death (PubMed:19651869, PubMed:21170303, PubMed:22753929, PubMed:22536155, PubMed:23818853). Activated by cleavage by Bacillus anthracis lethal toxin (LT) endopeptidase component (PubMed:19124602, PubMed:19651869, PubMed:19949100, PubMed:22536155, PubMed:23818853,PubMed:24935976, PubMed:24492532). Activated by metabolic inhibitors, such as 2-deoxy-D-glucose and sodium azide, by nutrient deprivation and hypoxia, possibly due to a decrease in cytosolic ATP (PubMed:23230290, PubMed:24935976). Also activated by Toxoplasma gondii (PubMed:24218483). Not activated by muramyl dipeptide, nor by full-length bacterial peptidoglycan (PubMed:22753929). Primary mediator of macrophage susceptibility to LT. In response to Bacillus anthracis infection, macrophages and dendritic cells release IL1B and undergo pyroptosis, an inflammatory form of programmed cell death. This early inflammatory response to the toxin increases resistance to infection by B. anthracis spores (PubMed:16429160, PubMed:19949100, PubMed:21170303, PubMed:22753929, PubMed:23818853). Binds ATP (By similarity).]
Serine protease 33	Q80WM7	[Function: Serine protease that has amidolytic activity, cleaving its substrates before Arg residues.]
Putative uncharacterized protein encoded by LINC00575	Q6W349
Tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 14	Q80WM9	[Function: Receptor for four distinct ligands: The TNF superfamily members TNFSF14/LIGHT and homotrimeric LTA/lymphotoxin-alpha and the immunoglobulin superfamily members BTLA and CD160, altogether defining a complex stimulatory and inhibitory signaling network (By similarity). Signals via the TRAF2-TRAF3 E3 ligase pathway to promote immune cell survival and differentiation (PubMed:19915044). Participates in bidirectional cell-cell contact signaling between antigen presenting cells and lymphocytes. In response to ligation of TNFSF14/LIGHT, delivers costimulatory signals to T cells, promoting cell proliferation and effector functions (By similarity). Interacts with CD160 on NK cells, enhancing IFNG production and anti-tumor immune response (PubMed:25711213). In the context of bacterial infection, acts as a signaling receptor on epithelial cells for CD160 from intraepithelial lymphocytes, triggering the production of antimicrobial proteins and proinflammatory cytokines (PubMed:22801499). Upon binding to CD160 on activated CD4+ T cells, downregulates CD28 costimulatory signaling, restricting memory and alloantigen-specific immune response (By similarity). May interact in cis (on the same cell) or in trans (on other cells) with BTLA (PubMed:19915044, PubMed:15568026). In cis interactions, appears to play an immune regulatory role inhibiting in trans interactions in naive T cells to maintain a resting state. In trans interactions, can predominate during adaptive immune response to provide survival signals to effector T cells (PubMed:19915044, PubMed:15568026).]
