Su(z)12 | Polycomb protein Su(z)12; Polycomb group (PcG) protein. While PcG proteins are generally required to maintain the transcriptionally repressive state of homeotic genes throughout development, this protein is specifically required during the first 6 hours of embryogenesis to establish the repressed state. Component of the Esc/E(z) complex, which methylates 'Lys-9' (H3K9me) and 'Lys-27' (H3K27me) of histone H3, leading to transcriptional repression of the affected target gene. The Esc/E(z) complex is necessary but not sufficient for the repression of homeotic target genes, suggesting that [...] (900 aa) | ||||
TppII | Tripeptidyl-peptidase 2; Component of the proteolytic cascade acting downstream of the 26S proteasome in the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. May be able to complement the 26S proteasome function to some extent under conditions in which the latter is inhibited (By similarity). Efficiently cleaves Ala-Ala-Ala-polypeptide and Pro-Pro-Ala-polypeptide, Val-Leu-Lys- polypeptide only at high concentration. Does not cleave Ala-Phe-Pro- polypeptide nor Pro-Leu-Gly-polypeptide; Belongs to the peptidase S8 family. (1441 aa) |
