DE   separation is intraepidermal and occurs within the basal keratinocytes
DE   at the bottom layer of epidermis; the junctional forms (JEB) display

DE   (basement membrane zone, BMZ), primarily within the lamina lucida; in

DE   bullosa display tissue separation at the basal cell/lamina lucida
DE   interface, at the level of the hemidesmosomes (hemidesmosomal
DE   variants). The hemidesmosomal variants overlap with the traditional

DE   Protein involved in a light-dependent process to convert 2-phospho-

DE   their type of Rubisco can catalyze the oxidative fragmentation of
DE   ribulose 1,5-biphosphate to 3-PG and 2-PG. 2-PG inhibits the Calvin

ID   RNA-mediated gene silencing.
AC   KW-0943
DE   Protein involved in RNA-mediated gene silencing. This term describes a
DE   number of related processes which use 21- to 25-nucleotide RNAs to
DE   repress the expression of specific target genes. These processes
DE   include the post-transcriptional regulation of mRNA by either RNA
DE   interference (RNAi) or endogenously encoded microRNAs (miRNAs) and the
DE   transcriptional regulation of mRNA by RNAi-mediated chromatin
DE   silencing. RNAi is generally triggered by the presence of dsRNA
DE   produced by bidirectional transcription or by the transcription of an
DE   inverted repeat or hairpin sequence. dsRNA is processed into small
DE   interfering RNAs (siRNAs) of around 21 nucleotide which are then
DE   incorporated into the RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC), which
DE   cleaves mRNAs with sequences fully complementary to the siRNA. miRNAs
DE   differ from siRNAs principally in their biogenesis. miRNA genes encode
DE   precursors with complex hairpin structures which are processed by
DE   endonucleolytic cleavage to form mature miRNAs. Like siRNAs, miRNAs
DE   function in RISC-like complexes. Animal miRNAs generally inhibit
DE   translation of target mRNAs following imperfect base pairing to the
DE   3'-untranslated region (3'-UTR), while most plant miRNAs show nearly
DE   precise complementarity to coding regions of target mRNAs and trigger
DE   mRNA degradation similar to siRNAs. Finally, in RNAi-mediated
DE   chromatin silencing, siRNAs derived from repeat element transcripts
DE   are incorporated into the nuclear RNAi-induced initiator of
DE   transcriptional silencing complex (RITS), where they guide chromatin
DE   modifications such as histone methylation which lead to
DE   transcriptional silencing.

ID   Sodium channel.
AC   KW-0894
DE   Protein which is part of a cation channel permeable for sodium found
DE   in the plasma membrane and in intracellular membranes. Sodium channels
DE   have been classified according to their gating mechanisms, which may
DE   depend on changes in the transmembrane electric field (voltage-gated
DE   sodium channels) or not (non-voltage-gated sodium channels, e.g.
DE   degenerins which are permeable also to lithium and potassium).
DE   Voltage-gated sodium channels, by opening in response to membrane
DE   depolarization, allow sodium entry and thus the propagation of
DE   depolarization along the plasma membrane of nerve, muscle and other
DE   electrically excitable cells. They play a role in different processes
DE   such as sensation, emotions, thought and movement. Another class of
DE   sodium channel is the degenerin/epithelial sodium channel (ENaC)
DE   superfamily, which is a group of proteins involved in diverse
DE   biological processes, including sodium homeostasis, salt taste,
DE   nociception, pain transduction, touch sensation and
DE   mechanotransduction.
