negative regulation of S phase of mitotic cell cycle

Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the rate of S phase of mitotic cell cycle activity.

The chemical reactions involving carotenes, hydrocarbon carotenoids.

The division of embryonic segments into compartments.

The process giving rise to specification of cell identity in the anterior compartments of the segmented embryo.

The process involved in the specification of cell identity in the posterior compartments of the segmented embryo.

The process whose specific outcome is the progression of the prostate gland over time, from its formation to the mature structure. The prostate gland is a partly muscular, partly glandular body that is situated near the base of the mammalian male urethra and secretes an alkaline viscid fluid which is a major constituent of the ejaculatory fluid.

The process that results in the patterns of cell differentiation that will arise in an organism.

The process by which a myeloid precursor cell acquires the specialized features of a granulocyte. Granulocytes are a class of leukocytes characterized by the presence of granules in their cytoplasm. These cells are active in allergic immune reactions such as arthritic inflammation and rashes. This class includes basophils, eosinophils and neutrophils.

Catalysis of the reaction: UDP-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine = UDP-N-acetyl-D-mannosamine.

positive regulation of protein catabolism

Any process that activates or increases the rate of the breakdown into simpler components of a protein by the destruction of the native, active configuration, with or without the hydrolysis of peptide bonds.

Functions in the storage of nutritious substrates.

The process whereby a relatively unspecialized cell acquires specialized features of an epithelial cell, any of the cells making up an epithelium.

negative regulation of cyclin dependent protein kinase activity

Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the rate of CDK activity.

regulation of epithelial cell differentiation

Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of epithelial cell differentiation.
