Compaction of chromatin structure prior to mitosis in eukaryotic cells.

Catalysis of the hydrolysis of O-sialoglycoproteins; cleaves the -Arg31-Asp32- bond in glycophorin A. Does not cleave unglycosylated proteins, desialylated glycoproteins or glycoproteins that are only N-glycosylated.

Catalysis of the release of any N-terminal amino acid, including proline, that is linked with proline, even from a dipeptide or tripeptide.

mitotic chromosome movement towards spindle pole

The directed movement of chromosomes in the center of the spindle towards the spindle poles, mediated by the shortening of microtubules attached to the chromosomes, during mitosis.

The process whereby a relatively unspecialized cell acquires specialized features of a neuron.

Catalysis of the reaction: L-alanine + glyoxylate = pyruvate + glycine.

The process whereby a relatively unspecialized hemopoietic stem cell acquires the specialized features of a B cell.

Catalysis of the reaction: octane + reduced rubredoxin + O2 = 1-octanol + oxidized rubredoxin + H2O.

Catalysis of the reaction: UDP-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine + alpha-D-mannosyl-1,6-(N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminyl-1,2-alpha-D-mannosyl-1,3)-beta-D-mannosyl-R = UDP + N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminyl-1,2-alpha-D-mannosyl-1,6-(N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminyl-1,2-alpha-D-mannosyl-1,3)-beta-D-mannosyl-R.

Catalysis of the hydrolysis of terminal non-reducing N-acetyl-D-galactosamine residues in N-acetyl-alpha-D-galactosaminides.

The chemical reactions involving melatonin (N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine).

The formation from simpler components of melatonin (N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine).

Catalysis of the reaction: octanoyl-CoA + L-carnitine = CoA + L-octanoylcarnitine.

The 'de novo' formation of a microtubule, in which tubulin heterodimers form metastable oligomeric aggregates, some of which go on to support formation of a complete microtubule. Microtubule nucleation usually occurs from a specific site within a cell.

Modulates the activity of a molecular chaperone.

Catalysis of the reaction: 3'-phosphoadenosine 5'-phosphosulfate (PAPS) + chondroitin = adenosine 3',5'-bisphosphate + chondroitin 6'-sulfate.
