grh | Protein grainyhead; Grainy head (grh) encodes the founding member of a highly conserved family of transcription factors essential for embryonic development. It is both a transcriptional activator and repressor, responsible for the proper expression of many genes primarily involved in epithelial cell fate, barrier formation, wound healing, tube morphogenesis and proliferation of larval neuroblasts; Belongs to the grh/CP2 family. Grainyhead subfamily. (1333 aa) | ||||
His3:CG31613 | Histone H3; Core component of nucleosome. Nucleosomes wrap and compact DNA into chromatin, limiting DNA accessibility to the cellular machineries which require DNA as a template. Histones thereby play a central role in transcription regulation, DNA repair, DNA replication and chromosomal stability. DNA accessibility is regulated via a complex set of post-translational modifications of histones, also called histone code, and nucleosome remodeling. (136 aa) |
