[GOC:jl] EOG8CZDXK GO:0005634 1/56 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."

[ISBN:0198547684] EOG8CZDXK GO:0007525 1/56 somatic muscle development biological_process "The process whose specific outcome is the progression of the somatic muscle over time, from its formation to the mature structure. Somatic muscles are striated muscle structures that connect to the exoskeleton or cuticle." [GOC:jid, GOC:mtg_muscle] EOG8CZDXK GO:0003700 1/56 transcription factor activity, sequence-specific DNA binding molecular_function "Interacting selectively and non-covalently with a specific DNA sequence in order to modulate transcription. The transcription factor may or may not also interact selectively with a protein or macromolecular complex." [GOC:curators, GOC:txnOH] EOG8CZDXK GO:0006355 1/56 regulation of transcription, DNA-templated biological_process "Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of cellular DNA-templated transcription." [GOC:go_curators, GOC:txnOH] EOG8CZDXK GO:0007520 1/56 myoblast fusion biological_process "A process in which non-proliferating myoblasts fuse to existing fibers or to myotubes to form new fibers. A myoblast is a mononucleate cell type that, by fusion with other myoblasts, gives rise to the myotubes that eventually develop into skeletal muscle fibers." [CL:0000056, GOC:mtg_muscle] EOG8CZDXK GO:0006366 1/56 transcription from RNA polymerase II promoter biological_process "The synthesis of RNA from a DNA template by RNA polymerase II, originating at an RNA polymerase II promoter. Includes transcription of messenger RNA (mRNA) and certain small nuclear RNAs (snRNAs)."

[GOC:jl, GOC:txnOH] EOG8CZDXK GO:0007519 1/56 skeletal muscle tissue development biological_process "The developmental sequence of events leading to the formation of adult skeletal muscle tissue. The main events are: the fusion of myoblasts to form myotubes that increase in size by further fusion to them of myoblasts, the formation of myofibrils within their cytoplasm and the establishment of functional neuromuscular junctions with motor neurons. At this stage they can be regarded as mature muscle fibers." [GOC:mtg_muscle] EOG8CZDXK GO:0007517 1/56 muscle organ development biological_process "The process whose specific outcome is the progression of the muscle over time, from its formation to the mature structure. The muscle is an organ consisting of a tissue made up of various elongated cells that are specialized to contract and thus to produce movement and mechanical work."
