Structural Maintenance of Chromosomes (SMC) family proteins play critical roles in various nuclear events that require structural changes of chromosomes, including mitotic chromosome organization, DNA recombination and repair and global transcriptional repression. The chromosome proteins are conserved in eukaryotes and can lead to mitotic chromosome segregation defects, suggesting a critical function of SMC family proteins in mitotic chromosome dynamics. SMC1 and SMC3 form a heterodimeric complex required for metaphase progression in mitotic cells. Specifically this SMC1/SMC3 complex is responsible for sister chromatid cohesion during metaphase. A number of cellular factors interact with hSMC1/hSMC3 during cell cycle. The major population of hSMC1/hSMC3 is in a compex with hRAD21 forming the human cohesion complex. Human cohesion complex associates with chromosomes which peaks at S phase and dissociates from chromosomes during G2/M transition. In addition, a subpopulation of hSMC1/hSMC3 associates tightly with nuclear matrix and centrosomes during interphase. A subset of hSMC1/hSMC3 is localized to spindle poles, spindles and kinetochores during mitosis when cohesin is in the cytoplasm. hSMC1/hSMC3 is required for spindle aster formation in vitro and reacts with nuclear mitotic apparatus protein in vivo.

Receptor tyrosine-protein kinase involved in numerous cellular mechanisms including cell proliferation, neuronal navigation, cell migration, and cell differentiation upon binding with glial cell derived neurotrophic factor family ligands. Phosphorylates PTK2/FAK1. Regulates both cell death/survival balance and positional information. Required for the molecular mechanisms orchestration during intestine organogenesis; involved in the development of enteric nervous system and renal organogenesis during embryonic life, and promotes the formation of Peyer's patch-like structures, a major component of the gut-associated lymphoid tissue. Modulates cell adhesion via its cleavage by caspase in sympathetic neurons and mediates cell migration in an integrin (e.g. ITGB1 and ITGB3)-dependent manner. Involved in the development of the neural crest. Active in the absence of ligand, triggering apoptosis through a mechanism that requires receptor intracellular caspase cleavage. Acts as a dependence receptor; in the presence of the ligand GDNF in somatotrophs (within pituitary), promotes survival and down regulates growth hormone (GH) production, but triggers apoptosis in absence of GDNF. Regulates nociceptor survival and size. Triggers the differentiation of rapidly adapting (RA) mechanoreceptors. Mediator of several diseases such as neuroendocrine cancers; these diseases are characterized by aberrant integrins-regulated cell migration.

Smad2 is a 58 kDa member of a family of proteins involved in cell proliferation, differentiation and development. The Smad family is divided into three subclasses: receptor-regulated Smad's, activin/TGF alpha receptor-regulated (Smad2 and 3) or BMP receptor regulated (Smad1, 5, and 8); the common partner, (Smad4) that functions via its interaction to the various Smad's; and the inhibitory Smad's, (Smad6 and Smad7). Smad2 consists of two highly conserved domains, the N terminal Mad homology (MH1) and the C-terminal Mad homology 2 (MH2) domains. The MH1 domain binds DNA and regulates nuclear import and transcription while the MH2 domain conserved among all the Smad's regulates Smad2 oligomerization and binding to cytoplasmic adaptors and transcription factors. Activated Smad2 associates with Smad4 and translocates as a complex into the nucleus, allowing its binding to DNA and transcription factors. This translocation of Smad2 (as well as Smad3) into the nucleus is a central event in TGF beta signaling. Phosphorylation of threonine 8 in the calmodulin binding region of the MH1 domain by extracellular signal regulated kinase 1(ERK 1) enhances Smad2 transcriptional activity, which is negatively regulated by calmodulin. The regulation of Smad2 phosphorylation on threonine 8 by ERK 1 and calmodulin is critical for Smad2 mediated signaling.

The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the STAT family of transcription factors. In response to cytokines and growth factors, STAT family members are phosphorylated by the receptor associated kinases, and then form homo- or heterodimers that translocate to the cell nucleus where they act as transcription activators. This protein is essential for mediating responses to IL12 in lymphocytes, and regulating the differentiation of T helper cells. Mutations in this gene may be associated with systemic lupus erythematosus and rheumatoid arthritis. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants that encode the same protein.

Syk (72 kDa) is a non receptor protein tyrosine kinase that plays an important role in immune receptor signal transduction and is implicated in endothelial cell functions, including cell growth and migration. SYK is a positive effector of BCR stimulated responses. It couples the B cell antigen receptor (BCR) to the mobilization of calcium ions either through a phosphoinositide 3 kinase dependent pathway, when not phosphorylated on tyrosines of the linker region, or through a phospholipase C gamma dependent pathway, when phosphorylated on Tyr 342 and Tyr 346. Thus the differential phosphorylation of SYK can determine the pathway by which BCR is coupled to the regulation of intracellular calcium ions. Alternate Names: p72syk; Spleen tyrosine kinase; Tyrosine protein kinase SYK.

Members of the suppressor of cytokine signaling (SOCS) family of proteins contain C-terminal regions of homology called the SOCS box, which serves to couple SOCS proteins and their binding partners with the elongin B and C complex. Serveral other families of proteins also contain SOCS boxes but differ from the SOCS proteins in the type of domain they contained upstream of the SOCS box. Four members of the ankyrin repeat and SOCS box-containing (ASB) protein family are identified and termed as ASB-1, ASB-2, ASB-3 and ASB-4. ASB-1 is expressed in multiple organs, including the hematopoietic compartment. ASB-1 knock-out mice display a diminution of spermatogenesis with less complete filling of seminiferous tubules. Asb-2 is a novel retinoic-acid (RA)-induced gene in acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) cells and its expression induces growth-inhibition and chromatin condensation recapitulating early events critical to RA-induced differentiaiton of APL cells. ASB-2 is directly induced by all-trans retinotic acid, by the binding of RARa to the RAR binding element/RXR binding element in the Asb-2 promoter.

CDO1 (cysteine dioxygenase, type I) is a 200 amino acid protein that belongs to the cysteine dioxygenase family and is involved in organosulfur biosynthesis. Existing as a monomer and expressed at high levels in liver and placenta and at lower levels in brain, pancreas and heart, CDO1 functions as a dioxygenase that uses iron and zinc as cofactors to catalyze the conversion of L-cysteine and oxygen to 3-sulfinoalanine. Via its catalytic activity, CDO1 is involved in pyruvate-, sulfate- and taurine-related metabolic pathways and is a crucial regulator of cysteine concentrations within the cell. Human CDO1 shares 94% amino acid identity with its rat counterpart, suggesting a conserved role between species. The gene encoding CDO1 maps to human chromosome 5, which contains 181 million base pairs and comprises nearly 6% of the human genome. Deletion of the p arm of chromosome 5 leads to Cri du chat syndrome, while deletion of the q arm or of chromosome 5 altogether is common in therapy-related acute myelogenous leukemias and myelodysplastic syndrome.PathwayOrganosulfur biosynthesis; taurine biosynthesis; hypotaurine from L-cysteine: step 1/2.

The coiled-coil domain is a structural motif found in proteins that are involved in a diverse array of biological functions such as the regulation of gene expression, cell division, membrane fusion and drug extrusion and delivery. CCDC43 (coiled-coil domain containing 43) is a 224 amino acid protein encoded by a gene that maps to human chromosome 17q21.31. Encoding over 1,200 genes, chromosome 17 comprises over 2.5% of the human genome. Two key tumor suppressor genes are associated with chromosome 17, namely, p53 and BRCA1. Tumor suppressor p53 is necessary for maintenance of cellular genetic integrity by moderating cell fate through DNA repair versus cell death. Malfunction or loss of p53 expression is associated with malignant cell growth and Li-Fraumeni syndrome.
