FunFam 10704: Karyopherin (Importin) alpha 4

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 4 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 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).
3 O00505 (/IPI) O00629 (/IPI) O35343 (/IPI)
Protein C-terminus binding GO:0008022
Interacting selectively and non-covalently with a protein C-terminus, the end of any peptide chain at which the 1-carboxy function of a constituent amino acid is not attached in peptide linkage to another amino-acid residue.
1 O35344 (/IPI)
Nuclear localization sequence binding GO:0008139
Interacting selectively and non-covalently with a nuclear localization sequence, a specific peptide sequence that acts as a signal to localize the protein within the nucleus.
1 O00505 (/TAS)
Protein transporter activity GO:0008565
Enables the directed movement of proteins into, out of or within a cell, or between cells.
1 O35343 (/IDA)

There are 6 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
NLS-bearing protein import into nucleus GO:0006607
The directed movement of a protein bearing a nuclear localization signal (NLS) from the cytoplasm into the nucleus, across the nuclear membrane.
2 O00505 (/TAS) O00629 (/TAS)
Modulation by virus of host process GO:0019054
The process in which a virus effects a change in the processes and activities of its host organism.
2 O00505 (/TAS) O00629 (/TAS)
Intracellular transport of virus GO:0075733
The directed movement of a virus, or part of a virus, within the host cell.
2 O00505 (/TAS) O00629 (/TAS)
Protein complex assembly GO:0006461
The aggregation, arrangement and bonding together of a set of components to form a protein complex.
1 O00505 (/TAS)
Protein import into nucleus GO:0006606
The directed movement of a protein from the cytoplasm to the nucleus.
1 O35343 (/IDA)
Response to hydrogen peroxide GO:0042542
Any process that results in a change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) stimulus.
1 O35343 (/IMP)

There are 6 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
Nucleoplasm GO:0005654
That part of the nuclear content other than the chromosomes or the nucleolus.
2 O00505 (/TAS) O00629 (/TAS)
Cytosol GO:0005829
The part of the cytoplasm that does not contain organelles but which does contain other particulate matter, such as protein complexes.
2 O00505 (/TAS) O00629 (/TAS)
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 O35343 (/IDA)
Nuclear pore GO:0005643
Any of the numerous similar discrete openings in the nuclear envelope of a eukaryotic cell, where the inner and outer nuclear membranes are joined.
1 O00505 (/TAS)
Extracellular exosome GO:0070062
A vesicle that is released into the extracellular region by fusion of the limiting endosomal membrane of a multivesicular body with the plasma membrane. Extracellular exosomes, also simply called exosomes, have a diameter of about 40-100 nm.
1 O00629 (/IDA)
Extracellular exosome GO:0070062
A vesicle that is released into the extracellular region by fusion of the limiting endosomal membrane of a multivesicular body with the plasma membrane. Extracellular exosomes, also simply called exosomes, have a diameter of about 40-100 nm.
