FunFam 208: Histone-lysine N-methyltransferase, H3 lysine-9 sp...

Please note: GO annotations are assigned to the full protein sequence rather than individual protein domains. Since a given protein can contain multiple domains, it is possible that some of the annotations below come from additional domains that occur in the same protein, but have been classified elsewhere in CATH.

There are 8 GO terms relating to "molecular function"

The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.

1 O60016 (/IDA)
Histone methyltransferase activity (H3-K9 specific) GO:0046974
Catalysis of the reaction: S-adenosyl-L-methionine + histone H3 L-lysine (position 9) = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + histone H3 N6-methyl-L-lysine (position 9). This reaction is the addition of a methyl group onto lysine at position 9 of the histone H3 protein.
1 O60016 (/IDA)
Histone methyltransferase activity (H3-K9 specific) GO:0046974
Catalysis of the reaction: S-adenosyl-L-methionine + histone H3 L-lysine (position 9) = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + histone H3 N6-methyl-L-lysine (position 9). This reaction is the addition of a methyl group onto lysine at position 9 of the histone H3 protein.

There are 13 GO terms relating to "biological process"

The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.
GO Term Annotations Evidence
Negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II GO:0000122
Any process that stops, prevents, or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of transcription mediated by RNA polymerase II.
1 O60016 (/IMP)
Chromatin silencing at rDNA GO:0000183
Repression of transcription of ribosomal DNA by altering the structure of chromatin.
1 O60016 (/IMP)
Chromatin remodeling GO:0006338
Dynamic structural changes to eukaryotic chromatin occurring throughout the cell division cycle. These changes range from the local changes necessary for transcriptional regulation to global changes necessary for chromosome segregation.
1 O60016 (/NAS)
Chromatin silencing at telomere GO:0006348
Repression of transcription of telomeric DNA by altering the structure of chromatin.
1 O60016 (/TAS)

The process that determines which donor locus a cell uses, in preference to another, in mating type switching.
1 O60016 (/IMP)
Chromatin silencing at silent mating-type cassette GO:0030466
Repression of transcription at silent mating-type loci by alteration of the structure of chromatin.
1 O60016 (/IMP)

1 O60016 (/IMP)
Cellular protein localization GO:0034613
Any process in which a protein is transported to, and/or maintained in, a specific location at the level of a cell. Localization at the cellular level encompasses movement within the cell, from within the cell to the cell surface, or from one location to another at the surface of a cell.
1 O60016 (/IMP)
Meiotic telomere clustering GO:0045141
The cell cycle process in which the dynamic reorganization of telomeres occurs in early meiotic prophase, during which meiotic chromosome ends are gathered in a bouquet arrangement at the inner surface of the nuclear envelope proximal to the spindle pole body. This plays an important role in progression through meiosis and precedes synapsis.
1 O60016 (/IMP)
