The process of an actomyosin ring, which functions in cytokinesis, getting smaller in diameter.

Catalysis of the cleavage of gelatin type I and collagen types IV, V, VII, X. Cleaves the collagen-like sequence Pro-Gln-Gly-Ile-Ala-Gly-Gln at the Gly-Ile bond.

Enables the directed movement of azoles, heterocyclic compound found in many biologically important substances, into, out of, within or between cells.

The process of making a septum that spans the plasma membrane interface between progeny cells following cytokinesis. The progeny cells that form a barrier septum are not able to exchange intracellular material.

Catalysis of the cleavage of gelatin types I and V and collagen types IV and V.

Catalysis of the reaction: phytoceramide + inositol phosphate = inositol phosphoceramide.

The dynamic reorganization of telomeres in early meiotic prophase during which meiotic chromosome ends are attached to the inner surface of the nuclear envelope.

outer kinetochore of condensed chromosome

The region of a condensed chromosome kinetochore most external to centromeric DNA; this outer region mediates kinetochore-microtubule interactions.

Interacting selectively with a DNA triple helix. The formation of triple helical DNA has been evoked in several cellular processes including transcription, replication, and recombination.

inner kinetochore of condensed nuclear chromosome

The region of a condensed nuclear chromosome kinetochore closest to centromeric DNA; this layer may help define underlying centromeric chromatin structure and position of the kinetochore on the chromosome.

Catalysis of the hydrolysis of peptide bonds with a broad specificity. Preferentially cleaves the terminal bond of -Arg-Arg-Xaa motifs in small molecule substrates (thus differing from cathepsin L). In addition to being an endopeptidase, shows peptidyl-dipeptidase activity, liberating C-terminal dipeptides.

The process by which replicated homologous chromosomes are organized and then physically separated and apportioned to two sets during the first division of the meiotic cell cycle. Each replicated chromosome, composed of two sister chromatids, aligns at the cell equator, paired with its homologous partner; this pairing off, referred to as synapsis, permits genetic recombination. One homolog (both sister chromatids) of each morphologic type goes into each of the resulting chromosome sets.
