Pc | Polycomb group protein Pc; Polycomb group (PcG) protein. PcG proteins act by forming multiprotein complexes, which are required to maintain the transcriptionally repressive state of homeotic genes throughout development. PcG proteins are not required to initiate repression, but to maintain it during later stages of development. Component of the PcG multiprotein PRC1 complex, a complex that acts via chromatin remodeling and modification of histones; it mediates monoubiquitination of histone H2A 'Lys-118', rendering chromatin heritably changed in its expressibility. Promotes locus-specif [...] (390 aa) | ||||
mge | Mitochondrial import protein; Maggie (mge) encodes a protein predicted to act as a receptor of the TOM (translocase of outer membrane) complex, which is involved in protein import into mitochondria. The product of mge modulates cell death induced by the expression of the mouse Bax protein. (148 aa) |
