The neighbors of candidate drug “MS-257” on the validation network.
Genes | Description | Weight |
---|---|---|
HDAC1 | Histone deacetylase 1; responsible for the deacetylation of lysine residues on the N-terminal part of the core histones (H2A, H2B, H3, and H4). Histone deacetylation gives a tag for epigenetic repression and plays an important role in transcriptional regulation, cell cycle progression, and developmental events. | 0.987 |
TP53 | Tumor protein p53: it acts as a tumor suppressor in many tumor types and induces growth arrest or apoptosis depending on the physiological circumstances and cell type. | 0.831 |
CASP3 | Caspase 3, apoptosis-related cysteine peptidase; involved in the activation cascade of caspases responsible for apoptosis execution. | 0.827 |
CCND1 | cyclin D1; essential for the control of the cell cycle at the G1/S (start) transition. | 0.822 |
CYP3A4 | Cytochrome P450, family 3, subfamily A, polypeptide 4; cytochromes P450 are a group of heme-thiolate monooxygenases. | 0.433 |
