| GO term | GO name | GO namespace | GO def |
| GO:0000976 | transcription cis-regulatory region binding | molecular_function | Binding to a specific sequence of DNA that is part of a regulatory region that controls transcription of that section of the DNA. The transcribed region might be described as a gene, cistron, or operon. [GOC:txnOH] |
| GO:0000978 | RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding | molecular_function | Binding to a specific upstream regulatory DNA sequence (transcription factor recognition sequence or binding site) located in cis relative to the transcription start site (i.e., on the same strand of DNA) of a gene transcribed by RNA polymerase II. [GOC:txnOH-2018] |
| GO:0000981 | DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific | molecular_function | A DNA-binding transcription factor activity that modulates the transcription of specific gene sets transcribed by RNA polymerase II. [GOC:txnOH-2018] |
| GO:0003677 | DNA binding | molecular_function | Any molecular function by which a gene product interacts selectively and non-covalently with DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid). [GOC:dph, GOC:jl, GOC:tb, GOC:vw] |
| GO:0003700 | DNA-binding transcription factor activity | molecular_function | A transcription regulator activity that modulates transcription of gene sets via selective and non-covalent binding to a specific double-stranded genomic DNA sequence (sometimes referred to as a motif) within a cis-regulatory region. Regulatory regions include promoters (proximal and distal) and enhancers. Genes are transcriptional units, and include bacterial operons. [GOC:txnOH-2018] |
| GO:0005515 | protein binding | molecular_function | Binding to a protein. [GOC:go_curators] |
| GO:0046982 | protein heterodimerization activity | molecular_function | Binding to a nonidentical protein to form a heterodimer. [GOC:ai] |
| GO:0006355 | regulation of DNA-templated transcription | biological_process | Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of cellular DNA-templated transcription. [GOC:go_curators, GOC:txnOH] |
| GO:0006457 | protein folding | biological_process | The process of assisting in the covalent and noncovalent assembly of single chain polypeptides or multisubunit complexes into the correct tertiary structure. [GOC:go_curators, GOC:rb] |
| GO:0045944 | positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II | biological_process | Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of transcription from an RNA polymerase II promoter. [GOC:go_curators, GOC:txnOH] |
| GO:0005634 | nucleus | cellular_component | A membrane-bounded organelle of eukaryotic cells in which chromosomes are housed and replicated. In most cells, the nucleus contains all of the cell's chromosomes except the organellar chromosomes, and is the site of RNA synthesis and processing. In some species, or in specialized cell types, RNA metabolism or DNA replication may be absent. [GOC:go_curators] |
| GO:0005654 | nucleoplasm | cellular_component | That part of the nuclear content other than the chromosomes or the nucleolus. [GOC:ma, ISBN:0124325653] |
| GO:0016602 | CCAAT-binding factor complex | cellular_component | A heteromeric transcription factor complex that binds to the CCAAT-box upstream of promoters; functions as both an activator and a repressor, depending on its interacting cofactors. Typically trimeric consisting of NFYA, NFYB and NFYC subunits. In Saccharomyces, it activates the transcription of genes in response to growth in a nonfermentable carbon source and consists of four known subunits |
| GO:0000785 | chromatin | cellular_component | The ordered and organized complex of DNA, protein, and sometimes RNA, that forms the chromosome. [GOC:elh, PMID:20404130] |
| GO:0032993 | protein-DNA complex | cellular_component | A macromolecular complex containing both protein and DNA molecules. [GOC:mah] |
| GO:0090575 | RNA polymerase II transcription regulator complex | cellular_component | A transcription factor complex that acts at a regulatory region of a gene transcribed by RNA polymerase II. [GOC:tb] |
| GO:0006357 | regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II | biological_process | Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of transcription mediated by RNA polymerase II. [GOC:go_curators, GOC:txnOH] |
| GO:0001228 | DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific | molecular_function | A DNA-binding transcription factor activity that activates or increases transcription of specific gene sets transcribed by RNA polymerase II. [GOC:aruk, GOC:txnOH-2018, PMID:20737563, PMID:27145859] |
