The protein encoded by this gene is a multifunctional, nuclear phosphoprotein that plays a role in cell cycle progression, apoptosis and cellular transformation. It functions as a transcription factor that regulates transcription of specific target genes. Mutations, overexpression, rearrangement and translocation of this gene have been associated with a variety of hematopoietic tumors, leukemias and lymphomas, including Burkitt lymphoma. There is evidence to show that alternative translation

14-3-3 are activates tyrosine and tryptophan hydroxylases in the presence of Ca (2+)/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II, and strongly activates protein kinase C. Is probably a multifunctional regulator of the cell signaling processes mediated by both kinases. Activates the ADP-ribosyltransferase (exoS) activity of bacterial origin. 14-3-3 proteins are localized in neurons, and are axonally transported to the nerve terminals. They may be also present, at lower levels, in various other euk

Von Willebrand Factor (VWF) was previously known as Factor VIII related antigen. VWF is synthesized exclusively by endothelial cells and megakaryocytes, and stored in the intracellular granules or constitutively secreted into plasma. This glycoprotein functions as both an antihemophilic factor carrier and a platelet vessel wall mediator in the blood coagulation system. Important in the maintenance of homeostasis, it participates in platelet vessel wall interactions by forming a noncovalent c

This gene encodes the catalytic subunit of the DNA-dependent protein kinase (DNA-PK). It functions with the Ku70/Ku80 heterodimer protein in DNA double strand break repair and recombination. The protein encoded is a member of the PI3/PI4-kinase family.[provided by RefSeq, Jul 2010]

Cyclin B2 belongs to a the highly conserved cyclin family, whose members are characterized by a dramatic periodicity in protein abundance through the cell cycle. Cyclins function as regulators of CDK kinases. Different cyclins exhibit distinct expression and degradation patterns which contribute to the temporal coordination of each mitotic event. Cyclin B2 has been shown to be expressed in testis and brain, as well as in several leukemic cell lines, and is thought to primarily function in th

C-jun (Oncoprotein C-jun) is a component of the transcription factor AP-1 that binds and activates transcription at TRE/AP-1 elements and appears to be a major downstream target of the SAPK/JNK signaling pathway. The transcriptional activity of c-Jun is regulated by phosphorylation at Ser63 and Ser73. Extracellular signals including growth factors, transforming oncoproteins and UV irradiation stimulate phosphorylation of c-Jun at Ser63/73 and activate c-Jun dependent transcription. Mutatio
