- tube closure
Creation of the central hole of a tube in an anatomical structure by sealing the edges of an epithelial fold.
- Pyrin domain binding
Binding to a Pyrin (PAAD/DAPIN) domain, a protein-protein interaction domain that has the same fold as the Death domain.
- dosage compensation by hyperactivation of X chromosome
Compensating for the two-fold variation in X-chromosome:autosome ratios between sexes by a global hyperactivation of all, or most of, the genes on the X-chromosome in the heterogametic sex, leading to a two-fold increase in gene expression from this chromosome. An example of this is found in Drosophila melanogaster.
- neural fold bending
The morphogenesis of the neural fold elevations that results in the movement of the tips of the elevations towards each other in order to fuse.
- neural fold formation
The process in which the neural fold is formed. The edges of the neural plate thicken and move up to form a U-shaped structure called the neural groove.
- kringle domain binding
Binding to a kringle domain. Kringle domains are protein domains that fold into large loops stabilized by 3 disulfide linkages, and are important in protein-protein interactions with blood coagulation factors.
- obsolete inactivation of paternal X chromosome
OBSOLETE. Compensating for the two-fold variation in X-chromosome:autosome ratios between sexes by a global inactivation of all, or most of, the genes specifically on the paternal X-chromosome in the XX sex.
- random inactivation of X chromosome
Compensating for the two-fold variation in X-chromosome:autosome ratios between sexes by a global inactivation of all, or most of, the genes on either the paternal or maternal X-chromosome in the XX sex.
