T cell receptor alpha variable 14/delta variable 4	A0A0A6YYC5	[Function: V region of the variable domain of T cell receptor (TR) alpha chain that participates in the antigen recognition (PubMed:24600447). Alpha-beta T cell receptors are antigen specific receptors which are essential to the immune response and are present on the cell surface of T lymphocytes. Recognize peptide-major histocompatibility (MH) (pMH) complexes that are displayed by antigen presenting cells (APC), a prerequisite for efficient T cell adaptive immunity against pathogens (PubMed:25493333). Binding of alpha-beta TR to pMH complex initiates TR-CD3 clustering on the cell surface and intracellular activation of LCK that phosphorylates the ITAM motifs of CD3G, CD3D, CD3E and CD247 enabling the recruitment of ZAP70. In turn ZAP70 phosphorylates LAT, which recruits numerous signaling molecules to form the LAT signalosome. The LAT signalosome propagates signal branching to three major signaling pathways, the calcium, the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) kinase and the nuclear factor NF-kappa-B (NF-kB) pathways, leading to the mobilization of transcription factors that are critical for gene expression and essential for T cell growth and differentiation (PubMed:23524462). The T cell repertoire is generated in the thymus, by V-(D)-J rearrangement. This repertoire is then shaped by intrathymic selection events to generate a peripheral T cell pool of self-MH restricted, non-autoaggressive T cells. Post-thymic interaction of alpha-beta TR with the pMH complexes shapes TR structural and functional avidity (PubMed:15040585).]

Functions in the canonical Wnt signaling pathway that results in activation of transcription factors of the TCF/LEF family (PubMed:20018874). Functions as upstream regulator of FGF10 expression. Plays an important role in embryonic lung development. May contribute to embryonic brain development by regulating the proliferation of dopaminergic precursors and neurons (By similarity).]
Ras-related protein Rab-7a	P09527	[Function: Key regulator in endo-lysosomal trafficking. Governs early-to-late endosomal maturation, microtubule minus-end as well as plus-end directed endosomal migration and positioning, and endosome-lysosome transport through different protein-protein interaction cascades (By similarity). Plays a central role, not only in endosomal traffic, but also in many other cellular and physiological events, such as growth-factor-mediated cell signaling, nutrient-transportor mediated nutrient uptake, neurotrophin transport in the axons of neurons and lipid metabolism (By similarity). Also involved in regulation of some specialized endosomal membrane trafficking, such as maturation of melanosomes, pathogen-induced phagosomes (or vacuoles) and autophagosomes (By similarity). Plays a role in the maturation and acidification of phagosomes that engulf pathogens, such as S.aureus and Mycobacteria (By similarity). Plays a role in the fusion of phagosomes with lysosomes (By similarity). Plays important roles in microbial pathogen infection and survival, as well as in participating in the life cycle of viruses (By similarity). Microbial pathogens possess survival strategies governed by RAB7A, sometimes by employing RAB7A function (e.g. Salmonella) and sometimes by excluding RAB7A function (e.g. Mycobacterium) (By similarity). In concert with RAC1, plays a role in regulating the formation of RBs (ruffled borders) in osteoclasts (PubMed:16040606). Controls the endosomal trafficking and neurite outgrowth signaling of NTRK1/TRKA (PubMed:16306406). Regulates the endocytic trafficking of the EGF-EGFR complex by regulating its lysosomal degradation (By similarity). Involved in the ADRB2-stimulated lipolysis through lipophagy, a cytosolic lipase-independent autophagic pathway. Required for the exosomal release of SDCBP, CD63 and syndecan (By similarity).]
Ankyrin repeat domain-containing protein 49	Q8VE42	[Function: May have a role in spermatogenesis where it promotes autophagy in response to serum starvation, via the NF-kappaB pathway.]
Ferritin heavy chain	P09528	[Function: Stores iron in a soluble, non-toxic, readily available form. Important for iron homeostasis. Has ferroxidase activity. Iron is taken up in the ferrous form and deposited as ferric hydroxides after oxidation. Also plays a role in delivery of iron to cells. Mediates iron uptake in capsule cells of the developing kidney.]
HIG1 domain family member 1B	Q99JY6
Delta-aminolevulinic acid dehydratase	P10518	[Function: Catalyzes an early step in the biosynthesis of tetrapyrroles. Binds two molecules of 5-aminolevulinate per subunit, each at a distinct site, and catalyzes their condensation to form porphobilinogen (By similarity).]
Annexin A4	P09525	[Function: Calcium/phospholipid-binding protein which promotes membrane fusion and is involved in exocytosis.]
GTPase IMAP family member 4	Q99JY3	[Function: During thymocyte development, may play a role in the regulation of apoptosis.]
Regulation of nuclear pre-mRNA domain-containing protein 1A	Q8VDS4	[Function: Interacts with phosphorylated C-terminal heptapeptide repeat domain (CTD) of the largest RNA polymerase II subunit POLR2A, and participates in dephosphorylation of the CTD by RPAP2. May act as a negative regulator of cyclin-D1 (CCND1) and cyclin-E (CCNE1) in the cell cycle.]
TraB domain-containing protein	Q99JY4
Chromobox protein homolog 7	Q8VDS3	[Function: Component of a Polycomb group (PcG) multiprotein PRC1-like complex, a complex class required to maintain the transcriptionally repressive state of many genes, including Hox genes, throughout development (PubMed:16537902, PubMed:22226355). PcG PRC1 complex acts via chromatin remodeling and modification of histones; it mediates monoubiquitination of histone H2A 'Lys-119', rendering chromatin heritably changed in its expressibility. Promotes histone H3 trimethylation at 'Lys-9' (H3K9me3) (By similarity). Binds to histone H3 trimethylated at 'Lys-9' (H3K9me3) or at 'Lys-27' (H3K27me3) (PubMed:16537902, PubMed:22226355). Trimethylation at 'Lys-27' (H3K27me3) is important for chromatin recruitment (PubMed:22226355, PubMed:16537902). May possibly also bind trimethylated lysine residues in other proteins (in vitro) (PubMed:16537902). Binds non-coding, single-stranded RNA and double-stranded RNA (PubMed:20541999, PubMed:16537902). Plays a role in the timely repression of differentiation-specific genes in pluripotent embryonic stem cells to maintain the undifferentiated state (PubMed:22226355). Regulator of cellular lifespan by maintaining the repression of CDKN2A, but not by inducing telomerase activity (PubMed:14647293).]
Meteorin-like protein	Q8VE43	[Function: Hormone induced following exercise or cold exposure that promotes energy expenditure. Induced either in the skeletal muscle after exercise or in adipose tissue following cold exposure and is present in the circulation. Able to stimulate energy expenditure associated with the browning of the white fat depots and improves glucose tolerance. Does not promote an increase in a thermogenic gene program via direct action on adipocytes, but acts by stimulating several immune cell subtypes to enter the adipose tissue and activate their prothermogenic actions. Stimulates an eosinophil-dependent increase in IL4 expression and promotes alternative activation of adipose tissue macrophages, which are required for the increased expression of the thermogenic and anti-inflammatory gene programs in fat. Required for some cold-induced thermogenic responses, suggesting a role in metabolic adaptations to cold temperatures.]
Toll/interleukin-1 receptor domain-containing adapter protein	Q99JY1	[Function: Adapter involved in the TLR2 and TLR4 signaling pathways in the innate immune response. Acts via IRAK2 and TRAF-6, leading to the activation of NF-kappa-B, MAPK1, MAPK3 and JNK, and resulting in cytokine secretion and the inflammatory response (By similarity). Positively regulates the production of TNF-alpha and interleukin-6 (By similarity).]

Inhibin beta B chain	P09529	[Function: Inhibins and activins inhibit and activate, respectively, the secretion of follitropin by the pituitary gland. Inhibins/activins are involved in regulating a number of diverse functions such as hypothalamic and pituitary hormone secretion, gonadal hormone secretion, germ cell development and maturation, erythroid differentiation, insulin secretion, nerve cell survival, embryonic axial development or bone growth, depending on their subunit composition. Inhibins appear to oppose the functions of activins.]
