E(z) | Histone-lysine N-methyltransferase E(z); Polycomb group (PcG) protein. Catalytic subunit of the Esc/E(z) complex, which methylates 'Lys-9' and 'Lys-27' of histone H3, leading to transcriptional repression of the affected target gene. 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. The Esc/E(z) complex is necessary but not sufficient for the repression of homeotic target genes, suggesting [...] (765 aa) | ||||
CLIP-190 | Restin homolog; Together CLIP-190 and jar may coordinate the interaction between the actin and microtubule cytoskeleton. May link endocytic vesicles to microtubules. May play a role in formation of furrows during cellularization. (1690 aa) |
