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) | ||||
scny | Ubiquitin carboxyl-terminal hydrolase 36; Hydrolase that deubiquitinates polyubiquitinated target proteins including imd. Required for preventing the constitutive activation of the imd/NF-kappa-B (Imd) signaling cascade under unchalleneged conditions. Deubiquitinates imd linked 'Lys-63' chains which leads its proteasomal degradation and consequently down-regulation of the Imd signaling cascade. Removal of the activating 'Lys-63'-linked chains is likely to enable their replacement with 'Lys- 48'-linked chains which act as 'tags' the for proteosomal degradation of imd. Required for maint [...] (1038 aa) |
