FunFam 9676: Spectrin alpha chain, erythrocytic 1

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 1 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
Protein heterodimerization activity GO:0046982
Interacting selectively and non-covalently with a nonidentical protein to form a heterodimer.
1 P08032 (/IPI)

There are 8 GO terms relating to "biological process"

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
Lymphocyte homeostasis GO:0002260
The process of regulating the proliferation and elimination of lymphocytes such that the total number of lymphocytes within a whole or part of an organism is stable over time in the absence of an outside stimulus.
1 P08032 (/IMP)
Porphyrin-containing compound biosynthetic process GO:0006779
The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of any member of a large group of derivatives or analogs of porphyrin. Porphyrin consists of a ring of four pyrrole nuclei linked each to the next at their alpha positions through a methine group.
1 P08032 (/IMP)
Plasma membrane organization GO:0007009
A process that is carried out at the cellular level which results in the assembly, arrangement of constituent parts, or disassembly of the plasma membrane.
1 P08032 (/IMP)
Regulation of cell shape GO:0008360
Any process that modulates the surface configuration of a cell.
1 P08032 (/IMP)
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 P08032 (/IMP)
Hemopoiesis GO:0030097
The process whose specific outcome is the progression of the myeloid and lymphoid derived organ/tissue systems of the blood and other parts of the body over time, from formation to the mature structure. The site of hemopoiesis is variable during development, but occurs primarily in bone marrow or kidney in many adult vertebrates.
1 P08032 (/IMP)
Positive regulation of protein binding GO:0032092
Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of protein binding.
1 P08032 (/IGI)
Positive regulation of T cell proliferation GO:0042102
Any process that activates or increases the rate or extent of T cell proliferation.
1 P08032 (/IMP)

There are 7 GO terms relating to "cellular component"

GO Term Annotations Evidence
Spectrin GO:0008091
Membrane associated dimeric protein (240 and 220 kDa) of erythrocytes. Forms a complex with ankyrin, actin and probably other components of the membrane cytoskeleton, so that there is a mesh of proteins underlying the plasma membrane, potentially restricting the lateral mobility of integral proteins.
1 P08032 (/IMP)
Spectrin GO:0008091
Membrane associated dimeric protein (240 and 220 kDa) of erythrocytes. Forms a complex with ankyrin, actin and probably other components of the membrane cytoskeleton, so that there is a mesh of proteins underlying the plasma membrane, potentially restricting the lateral mobility of integral proteins.
1 P08032 (/TAS)
Spectrin-associated cytoskeleton GO:0014731
The part of the cytoskeleton composed of spectrin, protein 4.1 and ankyrin. Spectrin-associated cytoskeleton is associated with the plasma membrane.
1 P08032 (/IMP)
Spectrin-associated cytoskeleton GO:0014731
The part of the cytoskeleton composed of spectrin, protein 4.1 and ankyrin. Spectrin-associated cytoskeleton is associated with the plasma membrane.
1 P08032 (/ISO)
Membrane GO:0016020
A lipid bilayer along with all the proteins and protein complexes embedded in it an attached to it.
1 P08032 (/IDA)
Cortical cytoskeleton GO:0030863
The portion of the cytoskeleton that lies just beneath the plasma membrane.
1 P08032 (/IDA)
Cuticular plate GO:0032437
A dense network of actin filaments found beneath the apical cell surface of hair cells, and into which stereocilia are inserted.
