FunFam 918: Guanine nucleotide exchange factor

Please note: GO annotations are assigned to the full protein sequence rather than individual protein domains. Since a given protein can contain multiple domains, it is possible that some of the annotations below come from additional domains that occur in the same protein, but have been classified elsewhere in CATH.

There are 2 GO terms relating to "molecular function"

The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.
GO Term Annotations Evidence
ARF guanyl-nucleotide exchange factor activity GO:0005086
Stimulates the exchange of guanyl nucleotides associated with the GTPase ARF. Under normal cellular physiological conditions, the concentration of GTP is higher than that of GDP, favoring the replacement of GDP by GTP in association with the GTPase.
1 Q06836 (/IDA)
ARF guanyl-nucleotide exchange factor activity GO:0005086
Stimulates the exchange of guanyl nucleotides associated with the GTPase ARF. Under normal cellular physiological conditions, the concentration of GTP is higher than that of GDP, favoring the replacement of GDP by GTP in association with the GTPase.

GO Term Annotations Evidence
Intracellular protein transport GO:0006886
The directed movement of proteins in a cell, including the movement of proteins between specific compartments or structures within a cell, such as organelles of a eukaryotic cell.
2 O13817 (/IC) Q10491 (/IC)
Exocytosis GO:0006887
A process of secretion by a cell that results in the release of intracellular molecules (e.g. hormones, matrix proteins) contained within a membrane-bounded vesicle by fusion of the vesicle with the plasma membrane of a cell. This process begins with steps that prepare vesicles for fusion with the membrane (tethering and docking) and ends when vesicle fusion is complete. This is the process in which most molecules are secreted from eukaryotic cells.
2 O13817 (/ISO) Q10491 (/ISO)
Vesicle-mediated transport GO:0016192
A cellular transport process in which transported substances are moved in membrane-bounded vesicles; transported substances are enclosed in the vesicle lumen or located in the vesicle membrane. The process begins with a step that directs a substance to the forming vesicle, and includes vesicle budding and coating. Vesicles are then targeted to, and fuse with, an acceptor membrane.
2 O13817 (/ISO) Q10491 (/ISO)
Protein targeting to Golgi GO:0000042
The process of directing proteins towards the Golgi; usually uses signals contained within the protein.
1 Q06836 (/IMP)
Exocytosis GO:0006887
A process of secretion by a cell that results in the release of intracellular molecules (e.g. hormones, matrix proteins) contained within a membrane-bounded vesicle by fusion of the vesicle with the plasma membrane of a cell. This process begins with steps that prepare vesicles for fusion with the membrane (tethering and docking) and ends when vesicle fusion is complete. This is the process in which most molecules are secreted from eukaryotic cells.
1 Q06836 (/IGI)
Chemotaxis GO:0006935
The directed movement of a motile cell or organism, or the directed growth of a cell guided by a specific chemical concentration gradient. Movement may be towards a higher concentration (positive chemotaxis) or towards a lower concentration (negative chemotaxis).
1 Q54KA7 (/IMP)
Vesicle-mediated transport GO:0016192
A cellular transport process in which transported substances are moved in membrane-bounded vesicles; transported substances are enclosed in the vesicle lumen or located in the vesicle membrane. The process begins with a step that directs a substance to the forming vesicle, and includes vesicle budding and coating. Vesicles are then targeted to, and fuse with, an acceptor membrane.
1 Q06836 (/IGI)
Actin cytoskeleton organization GO:0030036
A process that is carried out at the cellular level which results in the assembly, arrangement of constituent parts, or disassembly of cytoskeletal structures comprising actin filaments and their associated proteins.
1 Q54KA7 (/IMP)
Culmination involved in sorocarp development GO:0031154
The process whose specific outcome is the progression of the culminant over time, from its formation to the mature structure. Culmination begins with a morphogenetic change of the finger-like or migratory slug giving rise to an organized structure containing a stalk and a sorus. This process is the final stage of sorocarp development.
1 Q54KA7 (/IMP)
Cell-substrate adhesion GO:0031589
The attachment of a cell to the underlying substrate via adhesion molecules.
1 Q54KA7 (/IMP)
Positive regulation of ARF protein signal transduction GO:0032014
Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of ARF protein signal transduction.
1 Q06836 (/IDA)
Positive regulation of ARF protein signal transduction GO:0032014
Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of ARF protein signal transduction.
1 Q06836 (/IMP)
Response to endoplasmic reticulum stress GO:0034976
Any process that results in a change in state or activity of a cell (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a stress acting at the endoplasmic reticulum. ER stress usually results from the accumulation of unfolded or misfolded proteins in the ER lumen.
1 Q06836 (/IMP)
Chemotaxis to cAMP GO:0043327
The directed movement of a motile cell or organism in response to the presence of 3',5'-cAMP.

Cytosol GO:0005829
The part of the cytoplasm that does not contain organelles but which does contain other particulate matter, such as protein complexes.

Cell division site GO:0032153
The eventual plane of cell division (also known as cell cleavage or cytokinesis) in a dividing cell. In Eukaryotes, the cleavage apparatus, composed of septin structures and the actomyosin contractile ring, forms along this plane, and the mitotic, or meiotic, spindle is aligned perpendicular to the division plane. In bacteria, the cell division site is generally located at mid-cell and is the site at which the cytoskeletal structure, the Z-ring, assembles.

Cell tip GO:0051286
The region at the end of the longest axis of a cylindrical or elongated cell.

Golgi membrane GO:0000139
The lipid bilayer surrounding any of the compartments of the Golgi apparatus.
1 Q06836 (/IDA)
Lysosome GO:0005764
A small lytic vacuole that has cell cycle-independent morphology and is found in most animal cells and that contains a variety of hydrolases, most of which have their maximal activities in the pH range 5-6. The contained enzymes display latency if properly isolated. About 40 different lysosomal hydrolases are known and lysosomes have a great variety of morphologies and functions.
