Interacting selectively with any stretch of pyrimidines (cytosine or uracil) in an RNA molecule.

Protection of epithelial surfaces of the gastrointestinal tract from proteolytic and caustic digestive agents.

Combining with a neuropeptide to initiate a change in cell activity.

The region of a cell that lies just beneath the plasma membrane and often, but not always, contains a network of actin filaments and associated proteins.

Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of bone formation.

The specialization of organization of a photoreceptor, a cell that responds to incident electromagnetic radiation, particularly visible light.

Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the rate of bone formation.

Pathway by which 3-methyl branched fatty acids are degraded. These compounds are not degraded by the normal peroxisomal beta-oxidation pathway, because the 3-methyl blocks the dehydrogenation of the hydroxyl group by hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase. The 3-methyl branched fatty acid is converted in several steps to pristenic acid, which can then feed into the beta-oxidative pathway.

Catalysis of the reaction: ATP + rhodopsin = ADP + phosphorhodopsin.

Combining with a phorbol ester to initiate a change in cell activity.

Catalysis of the transfer of a methyl group to the nitrogen atom of an acceptor molecule.

The process whose specific outcome is the progression of the blood vessel over time, from its formation to the mature structure. The blood vessel is the vasculature carrying blood.

Catalysis of the transfer of a methyl group to the oxygen atom of an acceptor molecule.

Catalysis of the reaction: S-adenosyl-L-methionine + histamine = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + Nt-methylhistamine.

Processes that regulate the coordinated growth and sprouting of blood vessels giving rise to the organized vascular system.

Interacting selectively with telomere-associated DNA, usually characterized by highly repetitive sequences.

Catalysis of the transfer of a methyl group to the sulfur atom of an acceptor molecule.
