  Kathy serrano   Protein:  UniProt:O 00625 PIR (1x)   Today I worked on assignment four of the protein bioinformatics project I was able to get information from the website and data provided     SPIRE1   Protein spire homolog 1     Acts as an actin nucleation factor, remains associated with the slow-growing pointed end of the new filament (PubMed:11747823, PubMed:21620703). Involved in intracellular vesicle transport along actin fibers, providing a novel link between actin cytoskeleton dynamics and intracellular transport (PubMed:11747823). Required for asymmetric spindle positioning and asymmetric cell division during meiosis (PubMed:21620703). Required for normal formation of the cleavage furrow and for polar body extrusion during female germ cell meiosis (PubMed:21620703). Also acts in the nucleus: together with FMN2, promotes assembly of nuclear actin filaments in response to DNA damage in order to facilitate movement of chromatin and re...

assignment one

  September 7 2020   Kathy Serrano   Today I worked on assignment one of the protein bioinformatics project I was able to get information on my assigned protein Pirin o00625 and began to gather information. My protein function transcriptional coregulator of NF-kappa-B which facilitates binding of NF-kappa-B proteins to target kappa-B genes in a redox-state-dependent manner. May be required for efficient terminal myeloid maturation of hematopoietic cells. Has quercetin 2,3-dioxygenase activity (in vitro). Tissue specify Highly expressed in a subset of melanomas. Detected at very low levels in most tissues (at protein level). Expressed in all tissues, with highest level of expression in heart and liver. Belongs to  pirin  family, Genetic variations in PIR might have a sex-specific influence on bone mineral density differences in some populations. My protein is 90% related to RHIBE (  Rhinopithecus   bieti ) which another name for is Black ...
