FunFam 1446: Guanine nucleotide-binding protein alpha-4 subunit

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
Signal transducer activity GO:0004871
Conveys a signal across a cell to trigger a change in cell function or state. A signal is a physical entity or change in state that is used to transfer information in order to trigger a response.
1 P34045 (/IMP)
Protein binding GO:0005515
Interacting selectively and non-covalently with any protein or protein complex (a complex of two or more proteins that may include other nonprotein molecules).
1 P34042 (/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
Activation of MAPK activity GO:0000187
The initiation of the activity of the inactive enzyme MAP kinase (MAPK).
1 P34042 (/IMP)
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 P34042 (/TAS)
Gamma-aminobutyric acid signaling pathway GO:0007214
The series of molecular signals generated by the binding of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA, 4-aminobutyrate), an amino acid which acts as a neurotransmitter in some organisms, to a cell surface receptor.
1 P34045 (/IMP)
Sporulation resulting in formation of a cellular spore GO:0030435
The process in which a relatively unspecialized cell acquires the specialized features of a cellular spore, a cell form that can be used for dissemination, for survival of adverse conditions because of its heat and dessication resistance, and/or for reproduction.
1 P34042 (/NAS)
Aggregation involved in sorocarp development GO:0031152
The process whose specific outcome is the progression of the aggregate over time, from its formation to the point when a slug is formed. Aggregate development begins in response to starvation and continues by the chemoattractant-mediated movement of cells toward each other. The aggregate is a multicellular structure that gives rise to the slug.
1 P34042 (/TAS)
Chemotaxis to folate GO:0043326
The directed movement of a motile cell or organism in response to the presence of folate.
1 P34042 (/IMP)
Positive regulation of MAP kinase activity GO:0043406
Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of MAP kinase activity.
1 P34042 (/IMP)
Defense response to fungus GO:0050832
Reactions triggered in response to the presence of a fungus that act to protect the cell or organism.
1 Q19572 (/IMP)

There are 4 GO terms relating to "cellular component"

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
Nucleus GO:0005634
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.
1 Q19572 (/IDA)
Cytoplasm GO:0005737
All of the contents of a cell excluding the plasma membrane and nucleus, but including other subcellular structures.
1 Q19572 (/IDA)
Plasma membrane GO:0005886
The membrane surrounding a cell that separates the cell from its external environment. It consists of a phospholipid bilayer and associated proteins.
1 P34042 (/TAS)
Phagocytic vesicle GO:0045335
A membrane-bounded intracellular vesicle that arises from the ingestion of particulate material by phagocytosis.
