FunFam 48: Polycomb group protein Pc

Please note: GO annotations are assigned to the full protein sequence rather than individual protein domains. Since a given protein can contain multiple domains, it is possible that some of the annotations below come from additional domains that occur in the same protein, but have been classified elsewhere in CATH.

There are 5 GO terms relating to "molecular function"

The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.

There are 12 GO terms relating to "biological process"

The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.
GO Term Annotations Evidence
Regulation of transcription, DNA-templated GO:0006355
Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of cellular DNA-templated transcription.
2 P26017 (/IMP) P26017 (/IMP)
Specification of segmental identity, abdomen GO:0007385
The specification of the characteristic structures of the abdominal segments following establishment of segment boundaries. Identity is considered to be the aggregate of characteristics by which a structure is recognized.
2 P26017 (/IMP) P26017 (/IMP)
Ventral cord development GO:0007419
The process whose specific outcome is the progression of the ventral cord over time, from its formation to the mature structure. The ventral cord is one of the distinguishing traits of the central nervous system of all arthropods (such as insects, crustaceans and arachnids) as well as many other invertebrates, such as the annelid worms.
2 P26017 (/HMP) P26017 (/HMP)
Negative regulation of gene expression GO:0010629
Any process that decreases the frequency, rate or extent of gene expression. Gene expression is the process in which a gene's coding sequence is converted into a mature gene product or products (proteins or RNA). This includes the production of an RNA transcript as well as any processing to produce a mature RNA product or an mRNA or circRNA (for protein-coding genes) and the translation of that mRNA or circRNA into protein. Protein maturation is included when required to form an active form of a product from an inactive precursor form.
2 P26017 (/IMP) P26017 (/IMP)
Neuron remodeling GO:0016322
The developmentally regulated remodeling of neuronal projections such as pruning to eliminate the extra dendrites and axons projections set up in early stages of nervous system development.
2 P26017 (/IMP) P26017 (/IMP)
Gene silencing GO:0016458
Any process carried out at the cellular level that results in either long-term transcriptional repression via action on chromatin structure or RNA mediated, post-transcriptional repression of gene expression.
2 P26017 (/IGI) P26017 (/IGI)
Gene silencing GO:0016458
Any process carried out at the cellular level that results in either long-term transcriptional repression via action on chromatin structure or RNA mediated, post-transcriptional repression of gene expression.
2 P26017 (/IMP) P26017 (/IMP)
Neurogenesis GO:0022008
Generation of cells within the nervous system.
2 P26017 (/IMP) P26017 (/IMP)
Syncytial blastoderm mitotic cell cycle GO:0035186
Mitotic division cycles 10 to 13 of the insect embryo. This is the second phase of the syncytial period where nuclei divide in a common cytoplasm without cytokinesis. The majority of migrating nuclei reach the embryo surface during cycle 10, after which they divide less synchronously than before, and the syncytial blastoderm cycles lengthen progressively.
2 P26017 (/IMP) P26017 (/IMP)
Wound healing GO:0042060
The series of events that restore integrity to a damaged tissue, following an injury.
2 P26017 (/IMP) P26017 (/IMP)
Negative regulation of transcription, DNA-templated GO:0045892
Any process that stops, prevents, or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of cellular DNA-templated transcription.
2 P26017 (/IMP) P26017 (/IMP)
Negative regulation of response to gamma radiation GO:2001229
Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of response to gamma radiation.

There are 7 GO terms relating to "cellular component"

The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.
GO Term Annotations Evidence
Chromatin GO:0000785
The ordered and organized complex of DNA, protein, and sometimes RNA, that forms the chromosome.
2 P26017 (/IDA) P26017 (/IDA)
Nucleus GO:0005634
A membrane-bounded organelle of eukaryotic cells in which chromosomes are housed and replicated. In most cells, the nucleus contains all of the cell's chromosomes except the organellar chromosomes, and is the site of RNA synthesis and processing. In some species, or in specialized cell types, RNA metabolism or DNA replication may be absent.
2 P26017 (/IDA) P26017 (/IDA)
Polytene chromosome band GO:0005704
A stretch of densely packed chromatin along the polytene chromosome, visible as a morphologically distinct band.
2 P26017 (/IDA) P26017 (/IDA)
Intercalary heterochromatin GO:0005725
Any of the regions of heterochromatin that form a reproducible set of dense bands scattered along the euchromatic arms in polytene chromosomes.
2 P26017 (/NAS) P26017 (/NAS)
Nucleolus GO:0005730
A small, dense body one or more of which are present in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells. It is rich in RNA and protein, is not bounded by a limiting membrane, and is not seen during mitosis. Its prime function is the transcription of the nucleolar DNA into 45S ribosomal-precursor RNA, the processing of this RNA into 5.8S, 18S, and 28S components of ribosomal RNA, and the association of these components with 5S RNA and proteins synthesized outside the nucleolus. This association results in the formation of ribonucleoprotein precursors; these pass into the cytoplasm and mature into the 40S and 60S subunits of the ribosome.

PRC1 complex GO:0035102
A multiprotein complex that mediates monoubiquitination of lysine residues of histone H2A (lysine-118 in Drosophila or lysine-119 in mammals). The complex is required for stable long-term maintenance of transcriptionally repressed states and is involved in chromatin remodeling.
