Any process by which a protein is transported to, or maintained in, a specific asymmetric distribution, resulting in the formation of daughter cells of different types. The commitment of cells to specific cell fates and their capacity to differentiate into particular kinds of cells. Positional information is established through protein signals that emanate from a localized source within a cell (the initial one-cell zygote) or within a developmental field. Any process by which a protein is transported to, or maintained in, a specific location. Any process by which a protein is transported to, or maintained in, a specific asymmetric distribution. Process involved in cell fate commitment. Once determination has taken place, a cell becomes committed to differentiate down a particular pathway regardless of its environment. A biological process whose specific outcome is the progression of a cell over time from an initial condition to a later condition.
