molecular_function
|
A molecular process that can be carried out by the action of a single macromolecular machine, usually via direct physical interactions with other molecular entities. Function in this sense denotes an action, or activity, that a gene product (or a complex) performs. |

|
binding
|
The selective, non-covalent, often stoichiometric, interaction of a molecule with one or more specific sites on another molecule. |
|
GO:0005515
|
protein binding
|
Binding to a protein. |
|
GO:0042393
|
histone binding
|
Binding to a histone, any of a group of water-soluble proteins found in association with the DNA of eukaryotic or archaeal chromosomes. They are involved in the condensation and coiling of chromosomes during cell division and have also been implicated in gene regulation and DNA replication. They may be chemically modified (methylated, acetlyated and others) to regulate gene transcription. |

GO:0140030
|
modification-dependent protein binding
|
Binding to a protein upon post-translation modification of the target protein. |
|
GO:0140034
|
methylation-dependent protein binding
|
Binding to a protein upon methylation of the target protein. |
|
GO:0035064
|
methylated histone binding
|
Binding to a histone in which a residue has been modified by methylation. |
