👉 Cymaphytic is a term used in the field of biochemistry to describe a protein that binds to and regulates the expression of genes. These proteins are involved in various processes in cells, including DNA replication, transcription, translation, and post-translational modifications. In the context of cymaphytic, it refers to a type of protein that is known as a "capping protein". Capping proteins are proteins that bind to and regulate the expression of genes by interacting with specific regulatory elements
