FunFam 24: Histone deacetylase 3

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 2 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.
GO Term Annotations Evidence
Transcription corepressor activity GO:0003714
A protein or a member of a complex that interacts specifically and non-covalently with a DNA-bound DNA-binding transcription factor to repress the transcription of specific genes. Corepressors often act by altering chromatin structure and modifications. For example, one class of transcription coregulators modifies chromatin structure through covalent modification of histones. A second ATP-dependent class modifies the conformation of chromatin. A third class occludes DNA-binding transcription factor protein-protein interaction domains. A fourth class of corepressors prevents interactions of DNA bound DNA-binding transcription factor with coactivators.
1 Q09440 (/ISS)
Histone deacetylase activity GO:0004407
Catalysis of the reaction: histone N6-acetyl-L-lysine + H2O = histone L-lysine + acetate. This reaction represents the removal of an acetyl group from a histone, a class of proteins complexed to DNA in chromatin and chromosomes.

There are 6 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
Negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II GO:0000122
Any process that stops, prevents, or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of transcription mediated by RNA polymerase II.
1 Q09440 (/ISS)
Chromatin organization GO:0006325
Any process that results in the specification, formation or maintenance of the physical structure of eukaryotic chromatin.
1 Q09440 (/ISS)
Histone deacetylation GO:0016575
The modification of histones by removal of acetyl groups.
1 Q09440 (/ISS)
DNA protection GO:0042262
Any process in which DNA is protected from damage by, for example, oxidative stress.
1 Q09440 (/IMP)
Nematode male tail tip morphogenesis GO:0045138
The process in which the anatomical structure of the adult male tail tip is generated and organized. In some species of rhabitid nematodes, the male tail tip undergoes a morphological change such that the most posterior hypodermal cells in the tail (hyp8-11 in C. elegans) fuse and retract anteriorly, changing the shape of the tail from a pointed, tapered cone, or spike, to a rounded, blunt dome.
1 Q09440 (/IMP)
Positive regulation of cold-induced thermogenesis GO:0120162
Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of cold-induced thermogenesis.

GO Term Annotations Evidence
Histone deacetylase complex GO:0000118
A protein complex that possesses histone deacetylase activity.
